The shirts. The buttons. The capes. That feeling you get when you first glimpse the arena and all the empty pits, and the only thing is promise. When the last bit of confetti has fallen, and nobody leaves the field.
We are fortunate. |

GO OUTSIDE, OR SOMETHING. Go do something other than FIRST for a little while - after all, in January, your life is consumed! |

I am a FRC Coach/Mentor I don't know the meaning of the words "days off" or "rest". At least not from January to May. |

I find this ironic. In English class our teacher's tell us how there is symbolism and such, and we don't understand it or think its there. Then FIRSTer's get a Game Hit, and we think EVERYTHING is a symbol and has some significance. |

Building a robot to survive 2 districts, a Regional, a Region Championship, and World Championships (plus 4 - soon to be 5 - off season events) is a challenge in itself. |

We use the engines of our imagination on the robot all the time.

Mentors need to be sure that the team is on track to have a working robot ready. Students can do almost everything, but they need help watching the calender. Even if your ideas turn out bad, if your robot is inspectable and running when you arrive at your first event, anything can happen. |

We can relate anything back to water, and by anything, I literally mean ANYTHING. Surfing around on Chief Delphi has proven that to me. |

I've completely figured [the hint] out:
Robots will have to move around, and also displace objects in order to score points.
What do I win? |

You know, one year we need to stake out the AndyMark building for several weeks before Kickoff so we can see what the game pieces will be. Hidden webcam? :rolleyes: |

So next time you speculate, label it as such and not as established fact. Please. Bad information is worse than no information. |

Every freshman or first time FIRST student comes onto the team with little to no experience. The whole point is that you will get to learn how to do some new things. |

You don't have to build a robot to be on a robot team. This isn't about the robot, it's about learning. |

Our robot will use sensors to collect information about its environment, then discard that information and drive into a wall. |

If my shop was snowed in and my unfinished robot was sitting in there, I'd dig it out with a plastic spoon or melt it out with a Bic lighter if I had to. Every hour counts. If there's a will, there's a way to make it happen. |

It's the corollary that you pick them no matter what shape they start the event in. Pink is known for showing up at their 1st regional with the robot in an unfinished state. And somehow, magically by the end of qualifications it just works, and they win. |

Every year, 118 inspires our team to dream for the stars, and land on mars. If 118 wasn't there we wouldn't be off the ground. Think about it every superstar has critics. Keep doing what you do 118. |

The point of outreach isn't to "win" a "game" so I'm not sure what you hope to achieve with such a concept. The idea of "beating" another team in terms of outreach is fundamentally flawed. |
