It was also on the Behind the Lines epsiode. Jerry Budd (from AndyMark) offered to pay $20 of the shipping charges for the team that submitted the priority list with the most items on it.

I believe Kate Pilotte offered to match him on the FUN episode, but I can't confirm.

Jerry put up $20 towards shipping to the team that put the most items on their list. Kate Pilotte then put up $20 for the team with the most line items on their list. Marshall missed out on both by thaaaaaaaaaaat much.

Jeez! Rub it in! I came up a couple items short on purpose just to prove I could do it. I just didn't want to deprive Jerry of $20.

Re: [FRC Blog] FIRST Choice Round 1: Slight Delay & a Tweak

Now I wish I had watched that episode. I would have gone in and spent more than $20 worth of my manhours to get $20 off shipping by adding every item I could.

Well since we are apparently plugging: Here's where Jerry talks about the $20 and Kate adds on.

Re: [FRC Blog] FIRST Choice Round 1: Slight Delay & a Tweak

Somehow I missed notification about FIRST Choice this year, but from what I'm seeing on the list of things available, I don't think I missed much. Although Green Shaft collars are kind of cool. :-)

Hopefully I won't miss Round 2 and I'll see something worth getting.

We missed round 1 last year. Round 2 turned out to be excellent for us. We ended up receiving our top pick, 2 ADIS16448 IMU's. Now I am not saying you get a boost by missing round 1, it just worked that way for us.

Missing round 1 is not a big issue.

I am pleasantly surprised that we got all of our top priority items.

Hey, you can't get much worse than us last year - we didn't even know priority lists were a thing so we didn't do either round!

So...... How do I find out what we got?

I have not received an email and a check of our AndyMark account shows that all of our credits were used.

Thank you.

I saw the order, but it was dated 11/15/16.

All better now.

Every item we requested in order.

Got 5 of our top 6. We only missed on CIM motors. Totally happy with that!

We made out with all our top choices. Talon SRX, Power Distribution Board, Voltage Regulator Module, NavX Micro, and NVidia Jetson TX1. Pretty pleased with our haul.
