As always, the deadline is nominally Sunday at midnight Eastern. I'll be at the West Lafayette Kickoff this Saturday, so if you'll also be there feel free to submit your entry in person.

Go!

Look people.. I'm telling you... You can say "they're for a robot" until you're blue in the face, but these hemorrhoid doughnuts are just not going to sell!

[NPOE] Misread "First contest on the new laptop!" as "First contest for a new laptop!" and kinda got excited there for a sec. [/NPOE]

From my cold, dead hands.

Maybe a first, but this one comes in the form of a video:

Look Richard, I know it says #2, but this not the place...

[GeeTwo]

That 20-something degree of freedom manipulator a team brought to kickoff caused some concern until someone read rule R02.

Unfortunately for the person in the picture, the star of the photo was the giant donut, not the person. Looks like the photographer got hungry.

Here we see one of the most accurate guesses to a game hint in FRC history. The CDer spent weeks upon weeks inverse-ing, reversing, and re-rendering the still frame released. Unfortunately by the time the hint was solved, the FRC season was over and IRI had begun.

[GaryVoshol]

Who knows how to score this?

Raises hand: "Ooo, I know, I know. Pick me, pick me."

[DonRotolo]

The others look OK, but this one is obviously spoiled.

This team found out early on that collecting tubes by melting part of them to the robot's arm was a bad idea, at least for scoring them. In the process, however, they found out that their heat lamp could be used to make one awesome sun prop.
