With computers, every once in a while you see something that makes you think "I could have done this, why didn't I think of it? It would have made my life so much easier." Now is one of those times. |

For any coaches weary of choosing human players this year because you're worried they might lose their cool mid-game, a good indicator of someones ability to keep focused is their attitude while playing video games. |

The "line" is the point at which we've raised the floor so high that the advanced teams are hitting the ceiling. The ceiling is pretty darned high (and the GDC keeps raising it), so I don't think we're in danger of that any time soon. |

Because when you build the people and the team, building the robot comes much easier. |

At this point in build season, I'm thinking that whatever type we can get built and working is the best type, by far! |

Why is the battery labeled "battery"? |

You know when the school health nurse advises "always wear a condom"?
She doesn't actually mean "ALWAYS". ::safety::
I think Dean and Woodie have a pretty good idea of when they need safety glasses and when they don't.

Hey people, I found out the answer to my question and that one guy eric is right all you have to do is read the manual. The rules are in chapter 7.3.5.1, sections - .:) |

I would suggest spending a few more hours digesting the manual before you finalize your designs. You seem to have missed a few key rules. |

The battery needs to be velcro-ed, strapped, buckled, tied, bolted, glued, zipped, or stapled in place so that it can't fall out when (not if) the robot turns upside-down. |

Most of our old robots have been scrapped for parts. Our Chairman submissions are still read every year by the whole team. |

I've always believed that being who I was will not limit me to who I will be. That's what keeps me trying to learn more and become a better person. Otherwise I would've settled being someone ordinary and not care about anything around my life. - Ken Leung [more]
