Did anybody actually read?

Did anybody actually read the document on how to submit you FIRST Choice order? I found a rather funny picture waiting for me.

Yup, I ordered the Flux capacitor. We let someone use it at nationals and never got it back. LOL

Re: Did anybody actually read?

We're having a hard time filling the orders for Unobtanium. Seems like the only place we can find it is on this far-away planet with floating mountains and 10-foot-tall blue people. Our staff tells me that much of this is buried under a really large tree. I dunno why they don't just blow up the tree, pay off the natives, and ship it back here. Darn suppliers!

I'm a little disappointed that teams were not given the option of a free Turbo Encabulator. We've got some legacy hardware and a Retro encabulator just won't do.

Re: Did anybody actually read?

I was discussing our options with our team, and we decided that as much Cool Factor the Flux Capacitor would bring to our robot, we couldn't think of a practical way to get our robot up to 88 mph and still be competition-legal.

I think we'll be opting for the Dilithium crystal set.

That's the trouble with outsourcing.

I'm disappointed that they aren't offering a full Delorean!

Uh, too bad they don't provide Khaydarin crystals.

I was hoping I could pick up some new hydrocoptic marzel vanes for mine.
