Like many researchers before me, I look and read about what my peers are doing and developing, and then incorperate the best of them into my ideas or change my focus because of them. |

Ahh! I see that you discovered the "CMD_FLING_RECEIVER_RADIO_ACROSS_ROOM" command in the robot scripting language! Nicely done! |

The version that finished nationals was about 50% aluminum and 50% the original PVC and we never had any member break. (structural member, not team member). |

last year I wanted to electrically charge our frame, then cover the whole bot in tape and say it was for insulating purposes. Then I settled down and read the rule book. |

My only question is, Can your robot place tetras and deliver Krispy Kremes to team mentors in autonomous mode? |

A person is not defined by what mistakes they make, but more so by what they do after they realize their mistake. |

Maybe we should put one of those advisory signs: "Don't try this at home ... or at Robotics competitions" |

This isn't a science fair, sometimes it's okay to give away the answer, especially if they learned something on the way there. |

You can't simply bring another 100 teams into FIRST and have them all asking Andy Baker questions. |

I expect you to make mistakes and need help constantly. Just be sure each time you come to me, it's a new mistake and a different kind of help you need. This way I know you're growing. |

i do not TOUCH the robot. i don't even press the load button or the reset button. nooo touchy. but i like it better like that, this way, when something goes wrong, i can wholly blame the electronics ppl |

Well I guess that's better than some teams idea of team bonding which would be taping a wayward freshman to the wall with duct tape. |

I'm sure there aren't a bunch of rule makers sitting in a board room discussing "What rule can we change now to mess with the teams' heads?" Lets all just sit back and enjoy the regionals! |

Search is amazing. Give it a try. It's 10,000 lines of code that gets lonely if it's not played with often. |

I think applying Gracious Professionalism to strictly legal game play trivializes what is a much more important and fundamental FIRST concept. |
