Shoot. That came out all wrong - I meant to say, it's much better to come
with something crappy that doesn't quite function, rather than nothing. I
meant to indicate that I, myself, have a bad habit of not even bringing what
I had partially working.
Things started out so fun for the bridge-crossing contest (was that 11?), I
had this really awesome design that, after seeing how the contest went, I'm
sure would have been the fastest robot without question (provided it'd hit
the flag - and it was quite accurate, what I had done, so I don't think that
would have been a problem). But I couldn't figure out how to nicely lift up
the flag, or do it elegantly, and I got discouraged and stopped.
I gotta stop doing that.
