I don't think FIRST is the reason for following rules, being respectful, etc. We should do that anyway. |

I remember as a kid thinking how high a team number like 834 was. |

Apparently he felt that wearing ringers is akin to "being surrounded by safety." |

The closest and strongest friendships that I have formed, however, have come from the FIRST robotics program. Friends that I can call “brother,” that I can call “sister,” that I can just call “family.” |

Whenever we loose a committed member of FRC, our entire country pays the price. |

Our safety manager isn't allowed to use the power tools, because he used a drill as a pointing device. |

Mistakes happen. It's how we react to them and what we learn from them that shows what type of people we are. |

How the mentors of a team inspire their team is unimportant, as long as the team is inspired to do great things. We on 1824 believe in 'student designed, student built', but that does not mean that all teams should do as we do. For inspiration comes in many forms. |

I believe that those who have a clear understanding of their capabilities, both physical and financial, and design and build within those capabilities are the teams that succeed. |

Remember, everything you do while on the team reflects on your team. Good reputations are difficult to build and easily destroyed. |

I personally hope they change the terrain of the playing field ... if only to "level" the playing field. |

Don't just assume that because you can modify an existing design that you are an engineer. |

The question was asked. The GDC gave their ruling. If you don't like it then maybe you can run your own tournament and let people ignore your rulings. |

Your attribute of personal sacrifice is very noble, but FIRST needs YOU to be successful first. |

What I want is to ultimately make it so that the programming is actually done before the robot is finished. Imagine that!

You can learn a lot from making mistakes - even more from fixing them. |

We have about 16 pounds more to add, including the code- all that code can get heavy! |

Bottom line: hobbiests, hackers, and tinkerers can fiddle with something and make it work. Engineers are people who [b]engineer[/b] solutions to problems. |

FIRST has stated time and again that the program is not about teaching (they always refer to the I and R in FIRST) |

It's very confusing to other people on the message boards when you make things up that are incorrect and assert them as fact. Please don't do this. |

One of the many unwritten laws of engineering failure is that the problem will occur in the most inopportune time. |

With a little time and practice, I think that most people would find that there is no magic involved in programming. |

It's just another design constraint that needs to be dealt with. |

I just think that if we are going to have rules intended to level the playing field, they shouldn't hurt teams that put the effort in to go the extra mile. |
