Rich forgets one vital aspect in his preparations for a *FIRST *event. It’s not just the headset, but the headset and the clipboard that gives volunteers their authority. Forget one or the other, and there will only be trouble.
New feature of the 2009 control system: The camera can be programmed to capture images of the camera-shy. Rich has realized his team’s plot just too late.
[not entry] I seem to remember that there was a ruling a while back that it’s 12 midnight on Saturday, or whenever Billfred gets around to judging the contest, whichever is later. You might have a shot… [edit] Couldn’t find it, but it’s still tradition. If Billfred hasn’t judged the contest, any late entries are fair game to be judged.[/not entry]
Mr. Kressly: “You take on more picture of me and you will regret it.” snap
Mr. Kressly grabs camera and tosses it amongst a group of robots.
Robots go nuts trying to take each others picture.
Kressly talking in a calm-sounding voice: “I’m sorry, I never gave you permission to take that picture. According to rule <C502>, you’re not allowed to publish that picture because I never gave you permission to.”
Ira: “Oh, ok, I’m sorr–Wait, what rule?”
Kressly snatches the camera and runs away, yelling “MY RULE!” over his shoulder
“Pat-a-cake, pat-a-cake, Baker’s (the) man, bake me a cake as fast as you can…”
(Mr. Kressly has finally recognized that FIRST Robots can be as intelligent as young children, and interacts accordingly).
[NPOE] If your post hits before Billfred judges, it’s legit and scored.[/NPOE]
