Re: Recapping the 2016 Season in 6 words or less

We hit the high auto shot all the time, but sometimes it bounces out.
*Adjusts Auto*
We missed the tower...
Hey, we didn't bounce out.

Programming: "Missed auto, how, it's hard coded!"

Hardware: "We fixed the chain again" (We broke at least one segment of our chain every round)

Business: "..." (lol, its says nothing, get it? We pretty much don't have a business team )

Programming again: "We fixed the pie" (after every time they thought they got it working)

Mechanical: "Arm doesn't have enough torque. Off."

Electrical: "But we just soldered the motors."

Programming: "But we just got PID working."

Mentor: "The motor shaft just popped out."

(5 weeks later)

Drive team: "If only we had high goal."


True story: they put a BAG motor on thinking it was a Mini-CIM.
