Here, There, and Everywhere: It’s hip, it’s hip to be square - circle - triangle.
Come on baby, do the Logomotion with me!
Circle and a Tri-i-i, with Diamond!
Give (Game) Pieces a Chance!
Oh-oh, we’re FIRST way there! Ah-ah-triangle, circle, square. We got them all in the parking lot, ah-ah, and we’ll be marchin’ round the square!

Why is it that when you give a group of nerds something with a warning, they ALWAYS have to test it? Case in point: “Not a lifesaving device” is marked on the tubes, so we See* these H[sub]2[/sub]O-Bot-loving nerds off looking for a deep enough pool to test in.
*[sic]. NPOE: For those that don’t get the pun, look up the team’s name in actual spelling.

Team 237 was at a disadvantage in 2011. Instead of getting a blue square in their KoP, they received a blue diamond.

When it starts to rain here and the creek starts to rise, it is good to be prepared.

Considering the weather, keep your distance from the team member that has to carry the mini-bot pole.
The rain was too late… if only it had arrived in time to prevent the mini- bot from burning up…
It wasn’t until after the regular season that FRC Team 237 finally realized why they never scored very high. They were putting up the logo backwards.
Although a year later I congratulate team 237 on proving XKCD wrong.
After the 10th straight outreach event in the rain, they turned to black magic to solve their H2O problem.
Strategy session walk-through of the game for LogoMotion. Unfortunately they forgot the field isn’t 2 miles long.

The disclaimer isn’t “not a life-saving device”; it’s “we’re not responsible if this device doesn’t save your life when you jump into a rushing river during the rain”.
Notice how logomotion game pieces could be used in the 2016 water game?
237’s red, white, and blue Logomotion tubes were perfect for the Memorial Day parade. However, due to a packing mistake, their game pieces were slightly less patriotic.
I wonder how the game pieces will fare when “raining cats and dogs” becomes a literal reality. Lots of claws and teeth.
It’s still Monday out west!
