Heh...

Our robot this year could have been easily controlled with the default program, unfortunately. So Linda and I sat down and wrote out a line of code containing some 50 characters for each motor that would essentially do nothing on a perfectly-working robot but would get rid of the friction on the drive train otherwise (as in, your robot would always be getting a little more power than it would be with motor = joystick if you calibrate it correctly).

I think WildStang should look into a pneumatic-driven pen holder. That way, they can deploy it at the end of a match and crab around, spelling out "111 forever" or some such. That would be quite interesting.

I know it's what I've been threatening to do to my team for awhile, since I've usually been the only programmer (Except it's 422 forever... yeah...)
