If you have an opinion on something, it often says more about you than it does that thing. |

The GDC probably took bets on how many posts they could get off of a random CAD render, and bonus points for how many people go insane from thinking about it! :yikes: |

Why subject your robot to a potential sensor failure when you can train a monkey (or a student, if monkeys are lacking) to put the tube at the right height every time? |

There are always rules we don't agree with, just like in life. Our character is defined by how we respond. |

To me game hints are like robot teasers. Much ado about nothing and I ignore both. |

Yes, it is fun. Its fun to watch the students expand their thinking and look outside the "normal" and watch their thoughts explode! Its also fun to watch the mentor's minds fry trying to out think the students.;) |

In my opinion, watching someone CAD is about as exciting as watching them sleep. |

I'm so conflicted right now. On one hand, you made the same page as a celebrity. On the other hand.... Justin Bieber. |

Be careful what you wish for, you just might be asked to be on the committee! |

FIRST people are just wierd like that. We get drawn to places in the middle of the desert as long as we know there will be more people like us there. |

Is all your information based on hearsay and miscellaneous posts by other people that don't know what they are talking about? |

I'm frustrated by the world's reluctance to bend over backwards for FIRST. |

See... this is what I love about my friends in FIRST. They come forward to help me whenever I need anything. |

Yes there are a lot of problems that will pop up solving the problem, but thats the reason we do engineering for. |

Its easier to solve a problem when you have a positive attitude about it. |

If you want to make change, you have to know what you're trying to change. |

This is not pinewood derby. This is not a science fair. This is a sport, and in sports there are winners and losers. |

If there are no top tier teams, then who do we look up to for inspiration? |

"Well-resourced" teams with "deep pockets" don't just spring up, they are usually the result of a lot of hard work. |

Also, the judges don't give out awards for money. They give out awards for hard work and effort. |

It seems ironic to me that a robotics competition would come down to human error, which is precisely what the field of robotics attempts to prevent. |

Most people who say "winning doesn't matter" have not won enough to have a balanced opinion on the issue. |

I think there is much to be learned from working in teams, and team projects, but even more when you go out on your own some time for something you are truly passionate about. |

I remember eating dinner once. Long before Build season. Now, we only eat aluminum swarf and disappointment. |

FIRST robots definitely meet many commonly agreed upon definitions of robots. Some will disagree. Good for them. In my opinion, it's not worth arguing over. |

Let this be a lesson to everyone to never make changes to manufacturing drawings without issuing a new rev of the drawing itself... |

Though, of course, if the old one you like is shot, then you can just beat your new one with a hammer until it works the way you want. |

Its not about Poof balls or green lights or getting up on the ramp at the end, this is about the learning experience and inspiration gained throughout the year. |

In other words, don't worry about the results but strive for excellence in the way you live your life and everything you do. |

I hate that every year people turn this competition into whining rather than winning. |
Akash Rastogi |

If people are getting offended at seeing other teams list their accomplishments, maybe they should spend less time whining and more time doing things to make their own team win. |
