You can make unfounded guesses, but chances are you'll come off looking like a moron. Let's try and avoid that. |

So perhaps those that are so eager to complain might realize that if they spent a little less time complaining and a little more time analyzing the problem and developing solutions, then they might have a little less to complain about. |

You can't guarantee outcomes -- only effort. If your team did its best, be satisfied. |

Instead of "Team XXXX graciously accepts" how about just a big "yeaaaahhhhh!" ? |

If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say it all. I mean, I know we all get frustrated during build season, but we still need to make an effort to be polite and helpful. |

Only one full day of brainstorming on the hint? Boy are they behind... This thread's been busy for a week! |

The robot competition is the most obvious, visible, and distilled-media-friendly part of the picture... We shouldn't be surprised that it's all that gets into the news coverage, when that coverage is managed by someone who isn't already well versed in what FIRST is trying to do. |

Being consistently enthusiastic with a consistent message is not easy to do without sounding like a cult. We could use a reasonably large collection of things to say that restate the mission and vision of FIRST but don't appear to be stock phrases. |

Just get a nice big box of maraschino cherries and a cup of coffee and settle yourself down for a fun read. You'll be amazed at the ideas that you are going to have pop into your head. |

The real question is has anybody ever learned anything actionable from a game hint or red herring. |

...trapping Chuck Norris is worth infinity, Dave, Dean, and Woodie are 500 apiece, and trapping Andy Baker is worth double infinity |

The only thing more tedious than following a super-long thread is following a super-long thread with the same observations on every page. |

Trapping JVN (or any other IFI employee) is negative infinity [I]and[/I] a caption contest. Trapping 1114 is a measly 50 points, unless you trap Karthik, which multiplies your entire score by -1. |

I've been a good student this year. Can I have hint #2 for Christmas?
