On the other hand, if the tires were marked "NOT FOR FRISBEE SHOOTER USE" I'd be worried. |

Without fail, judges always come by when the spokespeople are in the bathroom, so others should be able to cover until they're back. |

This is probably one of the most important robots in FRC history and it never even was in an official event. |

Pro safety tip: put a string through coil springs that is tied off securely on the robot frame. This will help prevent the spring from jumping out and killing an inspector if it snaps. |

The sponsor had a $2000 sheet of aircraft aluminum in their scrap bin? Do they also blow stacks of dollar bills off their loading dock with a giant fan? |

The code is hopefully pretty self-documenting, but I haven't had time to comment it (kinda trying to build a robot at the moment). |

Just that the robot battery wont catch fire if you drop it the wrong way. Those LiPos pack quite a punch. |

While grandmothers are pretty cool, I would be hesitant in letting them determine what is and is not a robot. |

But please take into account that each year, the GDC has to come up with a rule book that will spend the next three months being picked apart by 40,000 of the brightest, most creative minds on the planet. I think they do an outstanding job of it. |

We had an over all losing record this year. When I look at kid's faces, they don't give a rip about that. I see excitement about the next event and talking about improvements for next year. Winning is nice, but that is not the reason I do what I do. |
