Let's leave the football uniforms at home though, teams. ... The last thing I want to see is Baker in Brett Favre yellow spandex... *shudder* |

Didn't know the details about the battery. In the past it was just a black (grey) box with two terminals...use...recharge...use..recharge. |

As long as this is a competition teams will push the limits. Those that succeed are those who can push the envelope and still stay within the lines. |

It's in the RUMOR MILL section, hence it is a RUMOR. Personally I find it entertaining to see what gets started in this particular forum section and have people go off the deep end. |

While we all look back and appreciate the shoulders of the giants of the past upon which we are standing, let us not forget that we are the giants of today. Ours are the shoulders on which others will be standing in the future. |

I would contend that you cannot have a consistently good robot without equally good teambuilding. |

Putting 2 and 2 together, and then mixing them back up for someone else to try and get 4 in a different way is just plain fun. |

Diversity means diversity in ideas too. Some of the robots from the singapore competition might have employed strategies or ideas that we may not even have come up with in North America. |

That sound you hear is a student on the mechanical team trying to get out of the shipping crate you closed too early. |

Anyone know anything about a missing plastic flamingo from NASA HQ? I should mention before you answer that tampering with federal property, even if it's weird stuff from (Dave's) office, is punishable by painful delivery of ChiefDelphi negative rep points. |

Wow, 3 people able to draw their designs using text in a script processor program. I guess I wasted my time learning all that CAD software |

The rules also never explicitly say that I can't park a Boeing 747 right in the middle of the play field and use it as an obstacle for the other alliance. But after a little thought, something tells me that I probably should not do it. |

The flux capacitor should have been allowed under the flowchart as long as it met the single component maximum cost. I did check with Digikey and they no longer carry the line. |

The great thing about autonomous mode is that it doesn't require any additional effort from anyone else on your team... (You could do that yourself...but I've noticed that people will usually offer to do it for you, rather than let the programmer touch power tools.) |
