You know this crazy ChiefDelphi... nothing but useless information and kids ranting about pizza. |

FIRST doesn't end after high school, for some of us, it is only beginning. |

While a great deal in engineering is random, unknown, and often unsolvable, nothing in engineering is black magic. |

Which meant that I was completely unprepared when the congealing large globules suddenly accelerated back towards me at 64 ft/sec/sec. |

Just remember, FIRST isn't about the robot, just have fun, meet new people, and try to learn something new. Killing yourself with inhumane amounts of pressure just isn't fun for anyone.

If we succeed, we succeed as a team
if we fail, we fail as a team
but either way, we are a team - we go home together
and celebrate our accomplishments, whatever they are
and try to learn from our mistakes. |

After the norovirus outbreak at VCU, we had our entire team sterilized. Oh, wait, that doesn't sound right... |

Ive been chewing on my yellow food wristband every night since the team party on friday at UTC. Every day it tastes better and better...almost as good as the food. Anyone else think so? |

But that is not all-FIRST is about teaching mentors what kids are like all over again. It's about closing the generation gap, creating bonds, life time friends, and skills that will last everyone involved a lifetime. |

That's right 10 years and this is the first time ever that the school wanted anything to do with the FIRST team. |

...sitting immediately behind Chief Delphi is a bad idea. I like the team and all, but they've given me a massive headache...They've got too much spirit. |

The part I like best is your method of transfering the torque via the balls. Very elegant. |

I like what FIRST said about it best: They consider it part of the "Game Challenge" |

Remember the volunteering is not mandatory for the people to do it. It IS mandatory if FIRST is to survive and the regionals to leave a positive impact on everybody. |

Team spirit is not all about the tools/noise makers. The Tigertrons didn't have any sort of noise makers. Consider other aspects of the award by making signs, mascots, cheers, and how you interact with other teams. |

Arguing about the rules doesn't change them. Fighting doesn't change them-and neither does feeling righteous. |

Edison was once asked "how do you come up so many good ideas?" to which he responded "for every good idea, I have 99 bad ideas first." |

This season, I learned that I will need a whip next year for keeping the electronics and pneumatics groups on schedule. |

Here is one really important thing I learnt this season:
If you do it for yourself, you ain't gonna make it. If you do it for you're team, You'll make it. |

resist the hive: As goofy as this may sound, wires do take up weight, several pounds of it. |

As JFK said we did not do this because it was easy, we did it because it was hard. |

we learned that's what happens when you start building without even thinking about weight. next year, we'll lighten everything BEFORE we mount it. |

We treat productive freshmen the same way as everyone else. As for excesively ambitous new people, we have one rule:what happens in the hotel, stays in the hotel... ;) |

You see the learning experience doesn't stop during construction. It goes on to competition or to everyone who looks at a picture on delphi, who studies the bot and says I like how they did this or I woulda changed this a bit. |
