I appreciate the fact that you put this together, however, despite several mentions in the original thread the North Carolina District was never added. Other missing Districts were added(such as MAR and Peachtree), but not North Carolina which was mentioned first.:confused:

3

Gold: PayneTrain
Silver: Marshall
Bronze: Notmattlythgoe

That’s a very dangerous trio

4

[Strike]1 at 2[/strike]

EDIT:

5

Um, there’s a notable omission from the best student drive coach list…

6

Being honest here, yeah you gotta love these guys.

7

I redid the votes for it manually, same results.

8

What is this “Bronze” business? We only take silvers on this team!

9

Didn’t 254 have a student drive coach?

10

A freshman I believe.

11

Huh, looks like the formatting on the results spreadsheet weren’t going through the script. When I went to count manually, it hid that column. That affected a couple awards. They all have been updated.

12

14 or so hours is a ridiculously short time window for replies on something this comprehensive. I was going to fill it out today, but apparently it’s over.

13

Any chance you’d share the raw data? It’d be fun to play around with

14

I was going to mention this as well. I’d have personally set a time window to fill it out instead of a response limit.

15

Most funny Chiefdelphi user?

Gold: PayneTrain
Silver: Marshall
Bronze: Notmattlythgoe

I’m going to have to re-evaluate my life choices now.

16

Don’t worry, with enough practice, that gold medal can be yours.

17

I’m surprised to not see 125 on the “cool buddy climb” list. Unfortunately it wasn’t super successful, but it was still one of the most out-of-the-box ideas I’ve seen in my few years of FRC.

18

I’m actually working on neural net based and LIDAR-enhanced quintic-spline :poop: posting right now.

19

But how is your field-relative :poop: posting through non-linear state estimation?

20

Proud of my former mentor :slight_smile: Trains his students well in the art of chief troll posts
