Sure you may have entered a 'bot in every single competition, but the
competitions I've been in (half of 'em), I have shown up with quality 'bots
that inspired folks... not the inspiration that would make a kid say, "Hey

So I figure there are two ways I come out on top on Saturday--
I show up with a 'bot that does the job, as usual...
Or I show up with LOR, walking, and still have the "Wow!" factor.

So there you are. Thursday is not a day to start building a 'bot for a
competiton. Friday is... :)
