That stationary robot got a Yellow card.
Week 1 - gotta love it!!

Wow seriously? in Traverse City we practically had battle bots. Teams were trying to tip or tipped over other bots every few rounds. Though of course teams got red card for hitting a opposing alliance tower or enemy robot in contact with it.
I wonder did any team ever right another robot after it tipped? Here our team was the only one that bothered to flip another alliance robot back on its wheels.
P.S. can you change the Rookie Year thing since I kind of messed up it is suppose to be 1996.
Everyone who has posted on this thread has brought about a lot of different ideas to the plate. Before it was just a simple 1 course meal in my mind. But when you post something on CD with tons of engineers and engineers in the making, your bound to have a feast!! - gallo26 [more]
