Justin Bieber says "US FIRST" rather than just "FIRST". The irony. |

Including the Kinect in the kit a parts is actually an evil plan. The programers are going to spend all their time playing with the Kinect. In competition the robot is just to sit there because it will not have a program. :ahh: |

I say we just organize a top-secret raid into FIRST HQ one night. |

FIRST is a community unlike the public at large, with the distinction lying on its gracious professionalism. I have no doubt that the community will continue to uphold and cherish this unique characteristic through difficult events such as this. |

"Individual": I am the FMS. I don't want to talk to you.
Robot: FMS, is this true? I still have stuff for you.
Actual FMS: No, what gave you that idea? Are you feeling ok?
Repeat.
Field Monitor: FTA! We need a counselor! |

Dash Board: Hey Robot, here is some new data.
Dash Board: Robot, did you get that data yet? Hello?
Robot: Yep! Thanks! Yep! Thanks! Yep! Thanks! Yep! Thanks! Yep! Thanks! Yep! Thanks!...
Other Robots: Will you please shut up? |

Robot: Gyro, please reset yourself and verify proper operation.
Gyro: ... WHY IS THE EVERYTHING SPINNING SO FAST? HELP! ...
Robot: Are you working yet? How about now? |

I just want to say that the rack 'n roll was my first year with FIRST! It was the best thing I ever did. I cant wait to learn more when we get to start up again! |

You pick the best person for the job whether they are black, white, asian, hispanic, female, or male; NOT so you 'look good' when they publish your team picture in the school paper, but because they can get the job done right, on time, with a passion. |

Naw, basketball isn't nearly as great a sport as FRC. They play for the money. We play for honor, dignity, and respect. |

I don't mind being odd...I like to - listen - to Dean Kamen's speeches.
They make sense. I don't get to listen to a lot of sense in the world, just a lot of noise. |

I blame FIRST for being the best thing that has happened to me. |

I fear sometimes as time increases between the present and when someone started, some sight of just how hard it can be to field a functioning robot for a young team is lost. |

The answer doesn't lie with an all student run team, or an Engineer-fest team... But somewhere in the middle. Moderation is key. |

My crotchety old person opinion is that it should be illegal to try to win the award. Do things because you like doing them or because it helps others. Don't do things to win awards. |

I don't think that FIRST is going to get better with a top down solution alone, it is going to take a grass roots effort to strengthen teams. That starts by teams getting off their "islands", self imposed or otherwise. |

You should qualify the same way you eliminate if you ask me. |

It's not about a team having lots of money to spend to travel the world to share FIRST but how the team draws the world into their FIRST experience. |

Let this be a hint to the hardware teams. Deliver that robot early and give the software and driving team time with the robot. IR3 has proven it can be done. |

The point of FRC (in my opinions) is to teach the kids that might have no skills, new skills. |

Goodness, YES. Please get a copy of the rules. It explains a lot, and if your robot does NOT follow the rules, you will not be allowed to compete. Really, it is very important. |

I've never encountered a motor as forgiving as a CIM - Stall them for 20 seconds, run them hot on a short turnaround, or call them mean names in between matches and they'll just keep doing their thing. |

All the powerhouse teams will be having powerhouses dinners with each other in the powerhouse restaurants, probably. - T^2 [more]
