I'm aware that I've already made a couple of topics in this forum about my robotics team and how it may affect my activity before. Please bear with me since this is the last one.

The robot I was building with my robotics team was shipped a couple of weeks ago. Since then, I've had little to worry about with the Robotics team altogether. That time of R&R between the Build Season and the actual competition is over, though. Now, it's time for the FIRST Robotics Competition.

Since not all people reading this topic would be interested in seeing what the competition is, I won't give you a huge explanation of it. If you want to know more about FIRST and the competition, just go to http://www.usfirst.org

The real reason I'm posting this topic is to tell everyone that I will not be here for most of this week. I'll be here today (Monday) and tomorrow (Tuesday) but between homework and preparations for the trip, I can't promise that I'll be here a lot. I will be leaving for the Peachtree Regional Competition on Wednesday at 2:00 and I do not have a computer to take with me. This means that I will not be coming to Tohea or any of the other sites I go to. Same goes for MSN and AIM. After Tuesday, you will probably not be seeing me again until Sunday.

So, now that I've said that, you can all look forward to me not being here for a while. Don't have too much fun while I'm gone, though.

((P.S. Please do not encourage me to destroy other robots at the competition. It's FIRST, not BattleBots. The destruction of other robots is not part of the game.))

Wait. You're fighting other robots, and you DON'T have a goddamn railgun attached to yours? What the hell is WRONG with you, dude? Strap one on, jam a gauss minigun in anywhere it'll fit, and take those two-bit fools DOWN!

...Good luck, etc etc.

Now, I am officially back, wearing a silver metal symbolizing that my team was on the alliance that made Second Place at the Peachtree Regional competition. Other than winning second place, my team also won the Chrysler Team Spirit Award and the Best T-Shirt Award. I had a fun time when I was down there and I came back with several souvenirs, including countless badges from other teams.

Anyways, I'm back now and as much fun as that was, I find it good to be back.

Nope. All I needed were the 8 game badges to know how much the Pokémon League phails.
