Looks like a busy tournament season shaping up. Qualifying tournament dates are posted @ the Florida Robotics site:

Roll up to the top of that page for some open practice dates, too.

Be sure to keep checking Robot Game Updates

It still seems early in the season to me, but I hope you’re making good progress on your research AND your table missions. Be sure to keep up with the Robot Game Updates online (see the link at the bottom of the page). They’re up to 30 already! A perineal favorite rule is here again:

22 – CHANGING THINGS OUTSIDE BASE
Where Rule 14 says that only the robot may make changes outside Base, this wording is new, but the rule is not. Like last year, a separate [whatever] can be sent to do things, but the point of this rule is to say that the motion of all things leaving Base must be initiated by the robot. Your hands can set things up, then start the robot, but it is the robot that must start all processes. NOTE: This is not some kryptic way of telling you a cart is or is not a good tool for the sink mission.

Food Factor Challenge is released!

I’m sure you’ve seen it at http://firstlegoleague.org/challenge/2011foodfactor but I like to link a few resources here so I can find them easily later. Still formulating my opinion of the board…

FLL2011_Robot_Game PDF file is linked here.

Everyone have a great season and do your best (oops, that’s Scouts!)
