Remember that the 4-slot cRIO...only has 4 slots. :) |

It means Dave Lavery isn't on the Game Design Committee this year. If he were, you probably would have found a banana instead. |

How many of the team's current students were even alive when those awards were earned? :) |

You do need help. Don't reject offers of assistance from veterans. There are more things you don't know than you think there are. |

Since you have to undo all the connections anyway in order to swap them, you might as well take advantage of the opportunity to do some simple and straightforward troubleshooting. |

Whether or not you use wheel weights, if you're running a wheel at several thousand RPM, you'd better have an effective containment system to protect the outside world in case something spontaneously disassembles itself. |

Exactly matching weight at two different regionals is an indicator of something fishy. :p |

I'll not deprive you of the practice in reading the manual; you'll need it if you want to be an effective part of an FRC team. |

Imagination is important, but try not to use it as a substitute for actual information. |

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. |

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

Where's the "drill enough weight holes so we're barely under 120lbs" option?

Practice bots are not regulated by FIRST. Your practice bot could have a flamethrower and a jamming device on it, and they wouldn't care in the slightest.
You just can't compete at a competition with it. :) |

What happens when everything becomes fully swagged out? Also, does my robot need to have collar-popping functionality to use every feature? |

In my opinion, leaders do not need to be picked. They naturally emerge as time goes on and as more opportunities are presented to them. |

These two options can both be used effectively to create a wonderful experience for the students, but limiting them to one area is like taking a globe, slicing it in half, and saying, "You can only explore this half." |

We all need to remember to be careful at these competitions. Danger lies in the most unexpected (and comical) places. |

Please understand that teams run things differently for specific and very valid reasons. And, this is OK as long as the students are inspired.

Competing at multiple regionals or Championship events has no bearing on the life lessons you will learn or the unbelievable memories you will have--for that is what FIRST is truly all about. |

if you want to repay us for the omni-wheels, use the money to help out a few rookie teams next year. Buy them batteries or help build them bumpers, anything you see fit will be much better than cash back to us. |

...regardless of anything that happens, there should be no booing at competitions, only cheers. True, many of us want to win, but in the end, all of us are working to expand FIRST and to promote the inspiration and recognition of science and technology through gracious professionalism. - Aignam [more]
