Go to Post Scoring ringers is going to be like dating. While a select few will master it with relative ease, the vast majority will need quite a bit of time to refine their skills to an acceptable level. - artdutra04 [more]

Our team got folded in to the Vex world last October at RoboNexus where we participated in a demonstration FIRST competition. Radio Shack was there and showed several teams the Vex box and described the basic system. They swore the team to secrecy, which I am proud to say, the team quite nicely honored. I ended up signing a non-disclosure statement with Radio Shack because I was looking to partner with them (and FIRST) in a National Science Foundation grant to use Lego-League, Vex, and FIRST.

Through RoboEducators, I will soon take a leap down the rabbit hole and learn a bit more about what is on the Vex horizon. I currently only know a minuscule amount more than the rest of our Vex community.

I'll ask what can be told to this forum, so folk don't have to resort to the Delphic oracular techniques of old. I can understand Radio Shack wanting to preserve their business opportunities by carefully managing the flow of Vex info. I certainly also know the value of advance knowledge for optimizing education (as well as the delight of just knowing stuff.)
