 The urge to compete tends to drive teams to hold the ideas close during the competition season, but the urge to contribute means they get publicized afterwards. - Alan Anderson [more] |

Things to do at regionals during off time
I was wondering what other people do at regionals when there is some off time (what little there is). But one thing we always do is play hacky sack. Its become a tradition.

Re: Things to do at regionals during off time
I would sit and relax my feet. Standing around gets really tiring.

Re: Things to do at regionals during off time
I do one of two things..... sleep or play hacky sack. And I will be doing so very much so in Atlanta for those who want to join the hacky sack.

Definitely sleep. But I also try to spend my off time talking to some new people, browsing the pits for new interesting mechanisms and enjoying a little fresh air. =)

Re: Things to do at regionals during off time
Free time at a regional is unheard of to me.
What I would suggest, though, would be visiting other teams in the pits, meeting their team members, asking them questions about their robots, and have fun hanging out with these really cool and really smart people. Just make sure you don't butt in during an emergency repair or something.

Re: Things to do at regionals during off time
During the little free time available I usually try to get in a bite to eat, take pictures, or just relax. I noticed how the number of pictures I have from regionals significantly decreased from last year to this year; being in the pit/operator vs. not being in the pit. It's also fun to check out other teams and robots.

Re: Things to do at regionals during off time
Hacky Sack in Atlanta sounds pretty good. Don't know of others, but I do a little freestyle so I love some hacky sack. This year I only went to one regional though with my team and I volunteered so I was not able to do much of anything else but work and eat. I definately would like to get some more pics of other robots though considering I have none. Trackball bowling sounds pretty wild lol

Re: Things to do at regionals during off time
If our team members are caught playing a game like that (other than at lunch) at a regional, the vein on MR.D's head gets very large and ugly.
Just say no!

Re: Things to do at regionals during off time
Our team usually never has off time but if we do we usually play hacky sack and eat..if we are not building the robot.
