Re: pic: 2007 Volunteer of the Year
Q: When the automatic scoring fell on its face - who was it that saved the day, more yet the season, by standing there for hours clickers in hand?
Q: When the Hatch software lost the team list, failed to enter autonomous, failed to exit autonomous, got the two sides out of temporal sync, or just plain crashed - who was it that un-plugged then replugged the Cat-5, rebooted, re-counted, or just plain overrode that expletive deleted? Q: When the teams failed to read the robot rules and mounted their bumpers a foot from the floor, used double sided tape to get a better grip with their shooter, powered their RC black/black, gained 13 pounds during eliminations, and so on and so forth - who was it that stopped them from gaining leverage, spewing sticky foam tape, reversing polarity and blowing their controller, gaining an unfair momentum and traction advantage, and so on? Q: When the teams got in the wrong position, failed to plug in their OI, failed to turn on their robots - who was there to start them off right? Q: Who was it that spent hundreds of dollars on air fare and hotel rooms only to have the privilege of being scrutinized for proper credentials as they scurried to grab a bite to eat? Q: Who was it that got to pay ten dollars a day to park because FIRST took them for granted and just couldn't part with a few entry fees. Q: Who got the blame when something went wrong? and finally Q: Who won't be volunteering at four regionals and the Champs next year, or thereafter? Last edited by Jack Jones : 02-05-2006 at 09:27. |
