week 7: check to see if the pets are still alive, ask significant others to take us back, do 6 weeks worth of make-up homework, and ask my boss for another extension. |

GDC.... Come on. Counter-clockwise? ... I believe NASCAR might file a lawsuit! |

it isn't about the technology but about the teams working together. Sneaky GDC has done it again. |

I believe it is in the spirit of the game is to score more points than your opponent within the rules. That means offense AND defense. |

There is no rule that specifically states that you must obey the law of physics during the competition. This may be an oversight. |

The true beauty is, no matter what the game (Yes, even 2001), we spend these 6 weeks going crazy with design strategy, and trying to figure out a way to work the plot twists that the GDC throws at us...and its a blast. |

It's a game. It's a challenge. Face it like a man, build a robot to play the game and get over it. |

The magic in a competition isn't finding creative ways to make an opponent lose, but finding even more creative ways for you to win. |

Just to be clear, NOTHING anyone says here is a confirmation. The ONLY source for official answers to questions like this is the FIRST Q&A system. |

But, as a mentor I should caution you that FIRST is not about you its about the students. |

I volunteered to be the person responsible for the electronics and raised my hand before realizing that I have had almost no electronics experience. I hope our robot turns out alright... |

If your prototype works perfectly, you've been working on it too long. |

If you use a flux capacitor make certain it is a COTS component, or that you fabricate it from COTS materials. |
