Next week, many of us VEXNerds will be heading to Anaheim, California for the 2013 VEX Robotics World Championships. There will be hundreds of teams there, and in the spirit of bringing all of the teams together, team 507 and I have decided to organize a huge round of the clothespin game. This game involves taking innocent and low cost clothes pins, and secretly tagging people for points.
To summarize, each pin is one point. There should be witnesses and documentation (pictures and videos), but the honor system is acceptable as well.
Get as many clothespins as you can and label them with your team name so that people know who got them! Try and bring back the clothespins to the teams and get to know who tagged you! ALSO! You can put the pin on your team signs - we’ll be on the look out for you guys
Anyone can play, and this would be a great way to get connected and learn more about each other!
Document it and send us videos! We’re team 507, so be on the look out for us We’re going to try and keep track of points, but it would just be hilarious to see employees with a bunch of clothespins!!
More and more people are joining the event! I can’t wait to see who’s playing.
Make sure you get ready! People are posting pictures of their pins on the event page, be sure to check it out and join!
If we have full documentation, and we tag a robot and the team doesn’t realize (ends up playing a full match with a clothespin on their robot), do we get bonus points?
