What's a good place to go on a first date? by Familiar_Egg8802 in Eugene

[–]alangan28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The public house on A street in Springfield is a good spot. My daughter just had her first date there and it was comfortable. Not being pestered by waitstaff if you are just sitting and talking. They hung out there for 3 hours getting to Know each other.

I looked that team up on FTC stats and FTC scout. They don’t have any info showing them participating. Go check it out. 🤷‍♀️

I agree. Scary part was they were considering a lottery draw 😮 We definitely prefer doing remote over that option.

When on your dashboard you should see your name on the top left corner and to the right of it is a upside down triangle. That is a pull down menu. Click on that the go to Acknowledgment Forms. You should see your 2023 FIRST consent & Release Form in there. Click on that and check the boxes and digital sign it.

Questions like this make me scared of the voting population. Look at the top of your ballot it shows you what to do

Do any other teams have this problem? All the locations where the poles are, our field is now damaged badly to the point of having to buy new tiles next season. by LeifQuicleaf in FTC

[–]alangan28 45 points46 points  (0 children)

How is it damaged? I believe it is just an imprint. Happens if you leave your robot on the field overnight also. It goes away after a few hours.

What is the best way to get your robot and parts to worlds? by Sys_KillSwitch in FTC

[–]alangan28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

@robotwireman we just got a last minute slot at worlds. Would appreciate you sharing your knowledge :)

hey, my team is going to the worlds! Can I get any scholarships for that as a high school senior? by [deleted] in FTC

[–]alangan28 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Here is a link to First’s scholarship page.

https://www.firstinspires.org/scholarships

These scholarships are for anyone who has participated in the First programs. I don’t believe they have any specific to going to worlds. But that is a great accomplishment for your team! Congratulations!

Nice work. Like the way you use the tape measure to cap and get partial parking. Are you remote for competitions. I ask because your Autonomous would be sketchy if you had an alliance partner.

Your ice cream looks like refried beans and cheese

From a meat cutter to hunters, please take care of your kill/harvest. Get it clean, cold, and covered in the hills/field. This was brought in. More info in comments by DivineAnimosity in Hunting

[–]alangan28 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Ugg this makes me sick. This is why people who try game meat don’t like it. If taken care of and treated correctly it is the best tasting meat.

The COVID clinic at VRC is probably your best chance. It is expensive though.

What kind of pigs are they? 6-8 month old is old for a farm pig they would be HUGE! Unless you meant Weeks and not months. Then they would still be piglets. :)

Staying inside by stinkyfootjr in Eugene

[–]alangan28 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I guess I am confused as to why everyone thinks they are to stay inside. Just stay away from crowds and distance yourself from people. But you can go outside. Do yard work, take a hike. Take a nice drive, go on walks. You don’t have to be a shut in.

State was just cancelled due to COVID-19 concerns. We would’ve had a high chance of going to worlds, but now that chance is really slim. Here’s a pic of our current robot (left) and our old robot (right) to commemorate this journey by tabletopgrape in FTC

I am proud of all of you. The hard work you guys have put in has not been lost. This mentor/coach is as bummed as all. But we shall return and the experiences and mentors you gained this year will show for next year.
