Re: Are you using duct tape?

from the GDC:

Quote:
We are anxious to see if tapes can/will be used in an aesthetically and structurally appropriate manner, without having myriad robots "held together with duct tape and baling wire" appear at the competitions.
No mention of bubble gum.....

Anyways, we have duct tape on top of our batteries, as labels, with Sharpie markings on the tape. It will probably be considered an illegal battery modification, and will need to be changed.

Re: Are you using duct tape?

Kilroy does not keep any duct tape in the lab; seriously. Our head mentor "doesn't want to keep the temptation around".

Although we do have a six inch strip of duct tape labled "Kilroy emergency tape", we (thankfully) did not have to use it this year.
