Interesting Q/A's

[sanddrag]

I too have posted a question (in Section 5.3, but they may move it) on keeping the robot controller. It isn't up yet (I guess a mod needs to approve it) but the title will be "Purchasing an additional RC vs. keeping the KOP one" or something like that. I want a concrete response and a logical reason behind it. We'll see if we get it.

While on the forums, I found this one quite interesting: http://forums.usfirst.org/showthread.php?t=286

Q: Can we use the gear boxes from last year (2005) to encorprate in our ball thrower for the 2006 season?

A: Yes, provided they are not modified in any way.

I think they mean, "provided they were not modified before the 2006 kickoff event." They really need to be careful with their answers. I think the original rulebook is pretty good, and the team updates have been few and short, but the Q/A board answers I could see beginning to lead to some mass confusion and countless disputes.
