I suspect the GDC is enjoying watching teams wrap their heads around this ranking algorithm.... and is probably a bit surprised that it has taken teams so long to clue in to the options this ranking system presents to them. - dtengineering [more]

We're using an innovative test method where the robot is placed on a chair with wheels (after the bench had been removed and replaced with a wooden board) to simulate movements without turning any motors on...all of this to simply test the gyro.

Not as innovative as our testing method.

We had someone from electronics sit there and rotate it for us.

"No, the other way. That way, darn it. Yes, that way."

Created a much livelier atmosphere that what your swivel chair (which is pretty cool too) seems to have created.
