YMTC: Hotel Work?

Natchez · #1 28-12-2004, 02:04

You Make The Call (YMTC) is a series of situations where you can be the ref and make the call.

Bluateam arrived at the Magnolia Regional, uncrated Bluabot, and ran their 3 practice rounds on Thursday. In each practice round, Bluabot threw a chain on the right drive train. Bluateam tried to repair the drive train during the day on Thursday but couldn't get the sprocket spacings and alignment correct. So, Bluateam took their right drive train back to the hotel along with a handful of 3/8" flat washers, a couple of screwdrivers and an adjustable wrench to make some final tweaks. At 4:00 am, Bluateam had the drive train working beautifully so they disassembled it in preparation for Friday morning. On Friday, Bluateam reassembled the drive train and put it on Bluabot. Bluabot swept through the seeding rounds and ultimately won the Magnolia Regional.

Based on the 2004 Robot Rules, YOU MAKE THE CALL!
