Build Events?
Hey, I was wondering if a thread for build events could be helpful. So maybe an example for Scrambler B/C could be, "What causes 3/4 wheels to touch the ground, and how can this be fixed?" Or for Flight, "What is the purpose of a horizontal stabilizer?" It might be helpful for finding common problems in build events.

Re: Build Events?
Well, this doesn't seem like a bad idea. I'll start with a fatal mistake that happens all the time (I fell for this one at regionals.)
How wide should a bridge be - for Division B versus Division C?

Re: Build Events?
I've seen a lot of people misread the Div C width rules this year, and I'm not really sure I understand why, because I found the rules quite clear. There's even a picture in the rules. So given that you made this mistake, could you explain how you misread the rules? Were you rushing and didn't read all the rules carefully, or did you misunderstand something?

Re: Build Events?
I don't know, literally everyone on my team says the bridge rules are super confusing. I notice how the diagram works now, but I honestly didn't know how the loading block system worked in relation to the diagrams. (I guess there's a reason why so much less people are tier 2'd at states.)knightmoves wrote: ↑March 28th, 2023, 7:47 am I've seen a lot of people misread the Div C width rules this year, and I'm not really sure I understand why, because I found the rules quite clear.
