This isn’t exactly a mystery but…

Our name comes from back when we were in First Lego League, all of us were on a team called the gladiators and whoever designed the shirts put a random Lego mini figure in a chicken suit in the middle of the shirts. Why he did it remains a mystery, but thats what gave us the name Robo_Chickens

Why our team’s puncher sometimes(always) didn’t work.

One of our sister teams copied our puncher, to where they had the exact same puncher on their robot, and it worked fine. We replaced the motor numerous times, even rebuilt the puncher, and it never worked.

We had 4 groups sophomore year, and only 3 screw drives. As you can guess, the screw drivers went missing very very often

Why we keep losing thousands (yes, thousands) of zip ties and rubber bands.

This has happened on multiple occasions

C channels are always cut to the weirdest sizes like why do u need a c channel that’s exawctly 17 holes wide?

There could be many reasons why any C-channel needs to be cut to any length, but the real question is why kids are cutting the C-channel across the row of 4 usable holes instead of cutting between them and only getting rid of one possible mounting point instead of 4
