Honestly though, having a cave would be one of the greatest places to build a robot. There's already lack of light and lots of floor space! Well, if you have a good cave sponsor, that is. |

You guys must sponsor that one team on The Fosters! |

Darn elite teams and their mentor-built caves. |

Your team has a cave?!?!? OMG, how did you guys get that?!?! Do you have a cave sponsor? We tried talking to cave sponsors but none of them responded. You guys must be an elite team to have a cave. |

FIRST really does enjoy watching us squirm with their teasers, don't they? |

We found our bandsaw on Craigslist for $40. We keep looking for laser cutters and waterjets in that price range, but so far no luck. |

You don't have to build a winning robot to build a team, but you won't build a great team unless they are striving to build a winning robot. |

I found another student once at a Cross Country meet because she was wearing a team shirt. I must say, I was surprised. I should start wearing my team shirt around more often. |

Anything released in a game hint is subject to enough misinterpretation and "nah, they'll never do that" to deflect any possibility of something being actionable. |

The imperfect COTS parts you have in your shop will perform much better on the competition field than the perfect custom parts you only have CAD drawings for. |

I, being a Trekky myself, will really enjoy a Star Trek themed game if it turns out to be that. I will not enjoy programming the alcubierre warp drive. :D |

Monkeys with typewriters will eventually create shakespeare, and spam bots will eventually create a thread title that fits the rumor mill. |

It's easy to get so caught up in the intensity of build that we forget we need some down time to recharge and get a fresh head. Taking a day off will only happen if you make it a priority as important as any other team meeting. Long hours do not equate to productive hours. |

In the end any amount of time can work, just be smart about how you use it. |

We didn't need a championship to recognize the kids on our [little league] team and we sure didn't need one to inspire them. If you want to go to the championships then work harder, don't try and lessen the value of the championships by letting everyone in. |

Were cargo shorts ever in fashion? I thought they were in the socks with sandals category. |

Unlike robot design, in the clothing world there's no such thing as too much pocketing |

Because of the silly "What's the best 254 team" thread I recently found there is an Electric Sheep! 2546. TBA also says 2505 is The Electric Sheep But which team is the one androids dream of? |

Throw the programmers (or freshmen with duct tape depending on the state of your robot) in the trailer with the robot for the ride between events. Problem solved. :D |
