If your goal is to make it to Einstein someday, someday you'll have to reach for the stars. It's just that the stars get a lot closer when you spent the offseason developing a rocketship. |

Did you inform McMaster Carr that up to 3000+ FRC teams would all be attempting to acquire a very specific spring ASAP all on the same weekend? |

Regardless of whether the max allowed weight is 10 pounds or 1,000 pounds, everyone is going to need at least one ounce more. |

Wait - a single message outlining the vast majority of where to find controls stuff? Goodness. What will they think of next. |

They can build a robot in 6 hours, so they don't need to start meeting for months... |

Oh... and congratulations FIRST, for launching the biggest shinny object of distraction just days before FRC kick-off. ;) |

Every single person on the team, read the manual, cover to cover, NO skimming. Do not give the task of knowing the rules to a few people. Do not pass go, do not collect $200, READ THE MANUAL. |

I miss the years when game speculation was based on an actual hint released in the form of unintelligible strings of numbers |

Large areas of ice in south Georgia is some what of an oxymoron. The best place for ice in south Georgia is in tea. |

To go a step further, to be "steam punk", electrics would need to be powered from a steam turbine operated dynamo but electric wiring would still be required to follow all rules as they would apply. |

The extra button could also just be a spare, but that's far less interesting than other possibilities, so let's keep speculating. |

This is not an engineering design challenge, this is a project management and common sense challenge with engineering elements. Don't go out of your way to screw yourself. |

The point of FRC (in my opinions) is to teach the kids that might have no skills, new skills. |
