Botball Public Opinion Polling (BPOP) Nominations

As YAC President Tess Niehoff announced at GCER, we are starting up the Botball Public Opinion Polling (BPOP) Nominations. What is BPOP? It's YAC's method of providing hard data to KIPR on what the teams want to be improved in Botball, and the best ways to achieve those improvements.

CBCv2 hardware

what are the hardware specs of the CBCv2/Create? I would like to see whats there so I could figure out what I can pull out of it. I also would like to see if I or someone else could write a simulator for it so I could try messing with the actual os without risking bricking my teams cbc's. Thanks for any help

2012 Game Question

In the 2012 game, is there a time limit before we can move onto the opposing team's side through the turnstile? There isn't one stated in the rules that I've seen. Thanks!

Which screw should be used to attach metal pieces to the Create?

There are four holes on the top surface of the Create that are the only way (as far as our team is aware) to secure metal pieces onto the Create. Does anyone know what is the color, length, etc. of the screw that fits into those holes?
