Ahem, a climbing xerox machine. Also known as the scariest type of xerox machine this Earth has ever seen. |

I voted to keep Stop Build Day but only for students. Mentors get to keep working on the robot. |

We considered naming our 2014 robot "Please Don't Point it at Me". I think the name fits. |

The extra button could also just be a spare, but that's far less interesting than other possibilities, so let's keep speculating. |

We can read about torque and speed in books, we can build a robot and drive it, but determination and character are built by time and encouragement, not just by studying. |

We all know that with mechanical systems, once all the noise has leaked out, the system quits (therefore quiet running mechanical systems last much longer :^) |

It wasn't about the ROBOT, or about whether I was male or female, it was about getting to compete in something that was just SO cool. |

There is something completely respectful and amazing to see FIRST teams who have members go through 4 years of the program without winning a single competition or even a single award. Those are the teams that are looked at by others and respected for what they do. |

Maybe this thread should be re-titled "Waiting impatiently for the 2011 hint!" since having over 100 posts doesn't seem very patient. |
