If you are "retiring" the old ball, make all the lights green, hang it 8 feet in the air, line up a bunch of 'bots and let 'em shoot poofs. RoboPinata! (warning kids - don't eat the "candy" that falls out!) |

So we get to hear the likes of Copioli, Baker and Patton yuk it up? This should be good. |

We are not the families of competiting robot teams, but we are a family of Gracious and Professionalism, because we know it better than anyone in the world.

What's so bad about Matt? I mean, if the guy can explain PID so that even I can understand it, he can't be all that bad... |

Now, everyone knows that Oompaloompas are like bunnies in that they have an insatiable desire to multiply, and the same can be said with Michigan teams (with all due respect) which are currently multiplying and filling that hand-shaped democratic kingdom with their honorable number. |

...remember, this is coming from someone that spent the better part of an afternoon playing with an omniwheel--not assembling, not disassembling, just playing. |

That's is why I raised this question, becuase I do not know all the facts (I doubt anyone does). |

I think we need a little more humour injected into topics such as these to diffuse whatever tension has been created by the original discussion threads. |

I don't really have a problem with school, as long as it doesn't get in the way of learning. |

...if most of the money comes from sponsors, I have a bit of a problem letting them [the students] charge off a cliff with it. |

YES! I am a MENTOR. Not a chaperone. I am busy all day, I don't want to deal with the stupidity that may or may not go on at night. Besides, I might see something as a cool physics experiment, where a chaperone might see someone dropping pop cans down the stair wells. |

[Bring] programmers [to Championships], they may be small, quite and easy to miss while leaving for Atlanta but its hard to do anything robotic without them, I've tried. |

As for the rain... I got to test out my umbrella hat last year. Turns out, it actually works...until the wind blows it off. |

No one said that this would be easy. And if they did, they were obviously refering to a little red button from Staples and not to FIRST. |

The easiest and most effective way to do this for the Championship event is pre-competition scouting, with statistics. Nothing beats it. Hands down. Period. The End. Nothing's better. |

Put on shows. Start new teams, FRC, FVC, or FLL. It doesn't matter. But I know that being on the robotics team has given me some of the best memories of my life, and I wouldn't want anybody else to miss out on that. |

Learn the theory in the classroom and pick up the practical through clubs (FIRST, mini Baja, SAE)... you really need the scale balanced in the middle |

On the contrary, you've had several helpful responses. You might be confusing "helpful" with "do my homework for me." |

I have postulated a theory that it is due to a resonance between gravity waves and the color purple. |

Do not treat Vex and FLL as inferior because they may not get as much exposure as FRC on these boards. Just remember, FLL has seven times more teams than FRC from twenty additional countries. |

On a lighter note, I know my team's happy that in our Rookie Year we built the sexiest robot in the world and got the Imagery Award at Nationals :D |

My nephew...loves FIRST. He wants to be an X-Cat but since he lives in Atlanta and that's a heck of a long commute for meetings I told him he probably should strive to be the next best thing: a CircuitRunner. |

It's in the RUMOR MILL section, hence it is a RUMOR. Personally I find it entertaining to see what gets started in this particular forum section and have people go off the deep end. - Gary Dillard [more]
