Go to Post Are they Robots? Of course they aren't robots; they are obviously and unambiguously robots. gblake RoboDesigners
Go to Post FIRST is more than FRC. gblake Whippet
Go to Post When more STEM teams exist outside schools than in them, that will be one indication that a true cultural change has occurred. gblake Kevin Leonard
Go to Post Avoid the impulse to shoot from the hip, and find out the full picture before deciding where you stand. gblake MechEng83
Go to Post While those ideals might exist in black and white perfection; in the real world, with very rare exception, they can only be implemented as compromises in shades of gray. gblake evanperryg
Go to Post If that due diligence shows that a real need for action exists, *then* grab the pitchforks, and light the torches. gblake Collin Fultz
Go to Post Don't be too distracted by the shiny robots, and the games they play. Enjoy them, but keep your eyes on the real prize(s). gblake Whippet
Go to Post And I have to say, those days where you are just beating yourself, and smacking your head against the wall, and you just wish the robot would catch fire so you could go home, make the top of the mountain that much sweeter. Gboehm synth3tk
Go to Post The driver must have a relationship with the robot, the driver should talk to the robot, speak soft encouraging words to it. Pet names are also a good idea. If the driver does not love the robot, how can the driver learn to trust the robot. Gboehm synth3tk
Go to Post "Why use a CNC when you can get it done with wood, duct tape, and zipties!" gcgeobuff ctt956
Go to Post We don't do battle bots, but we play hard. Gdeaver Daisy
Go to Post Learning by failure is quite common. Gdeaver s_forbes

Go to Post I've be addicted for 15 years. Tried to quit but failed. Gdeaver maxnz
Go to Post Define "surgery". I think we have enough close calls with "surgery" as it is. Thank god for disable dongles. geeknerd99 Blue_Mist
Go to Post it is actually more important to understand and be able to clearly state the question than it is to know the answers. GeeTwo Taylor
Go to Post Have you been formally diagnosed as a masochist, or are you just a mentor? GeeTwo cadandcookies
Go to Post To think that the seminal work on the FRC experience is about the least favorite game of all time, being played by a team that no longer exists, is either the height of insanity or a master stroke of inspiration. GeeTwo Karthik
Go to Post RoboRIO brownout (v, n): The GDC's alternative to limiting the number of motors allowed on a robot. GeeTwo Billfred
Go to Post but if you can build stuff, you can figure out how to build other stuff. GeeTwo EDesbiens
Go to Post Being in FIRST and putting the focus on the robot is like building a robot and putting the focus on the bandsaw (or mill or lathe, or whatever you do your machining with). The robot is a tool we use to play the game, the game is a tool we use to inspire and teach. GeeTwo Whippet
Go to Post Sometimes people are just offended too easily. Sometimes offensively so. GeeTwo GreyingJay
Go to Post If the pattern holds, it's a bizarro year. GeeTwo Richard Wallace
Go to Post The game is leaking? That can only mean... GeeTwo frcguy
Go to Post Bottom line is I love FIRST and what it stand for. Hold nationals in a corn field on old crates and I'll support it! If the FIRST staff is reading, Thank you for all the hard work you do! Gene F
Go to Post Super Regional? I don't know...if you combine NJ and Philly the universe might tear a hole in itself...and we wouldn't want that now would we? Mwahaha. George A. Alex Burman
Go to Post We were all rookies once, and we really have two ways to go about things: either take a page from the powerhouses and emulate their style, or complain about not having anything and risk falling into oblivion. George A. GCentola
Go to Post I got something totally different from my FIRST experience. to me the spirit of FIRST is all about sharing. during the 6 week build period, you share yourself with the other people on your team. at the competition, you share your creation with everyone who watches your 'bot play the game. George1902
Go to Post whatever you build, build it to last. George1902
Go to Post You can take the man out of FIRST, but you can't take FIRST out of the man. George1902 Bharat Nain
Go to Post Sounds like a silly idea... so of course I'm in. George1902 Billfred
Go to Post It'd be nice if, one day, people just concentrated on how to inspire your own team and your own community. Let others decide on how to inspire theirs. George1902 Swan217
Go to Post Inaccurate data is not data. It's guessing. George1902 Taylor
Go to Post Sweeeetttt.....Thats all that needs to be said. :D george56 kjhobin
Go to Post FIRST is our Hunger Games. May the odds be ever in your favor. GeorgeM Pratik Kunapuli
Go to Post Unfortunately I think IFI made us buy a new one. Something about 200amps across the power connector not being a warranty item. GeorgeTheEng Billfred
Go to Post Engineering is a balance between best performance, best cost, and best use of time. GeorgeTheEng Billfred
