15 Random Things I Learned This Build Season, '09

[bobwrit]

We learned that our shop walls are sound-proof to non-workers

[Herodotus]

Here is my list.

- Our team isn't incapable of sticking to a schedule, but somehow always get's done before ship/bag.
- This game isn't as bad as I thought it would be, judging by the build season.
- Chief Delphi is really amusing at 2:00am, along with just about everything else.
- 148 has some crazy mad robot skillz, though I suppose I actually knew this already. (also applies to 27, 968, 254, 100, 1625, and too many others to name.)
- Ship day sounds a lot cooler than bag day.
-Our team is actually capable of making an underweight robot.

1) If you can, don't go to radioshack more than 8 times in one day.

But what sounds cooler:

Bag & Tag!
or
Crate & Wait! (for Fed-Ex to show up)

After my 8th build season there is still much to learn...

...but the important thing to remember is to hold your head high at the end of the season and be proud of the robot you created, no matter how "good" it is. Anything you put that much time into is worth holding your head high for.
