We are working on dremeling down the sides of ours from about 32x32x32cm, although we don't really see how one or two of the dimensions can get smaller than 30cm if you're attempting the sorting bonus task (our pint containers themselves are 12cm tall and have an almost 10cm diameter). We weren't even able to incorporate all the energy transfer tasks into our 32x32x32 device along with the pint containers.
20cmX20cmX20Cm, Every Transfer but 2 ElectroMagnetic, Perfect Sort, Perfect Time.
Is this... like... average for the missions now...?
That seems impossible lol
New poster + no state or school = questionable reliability in my book.

If I go, I want to see you wave from the stage. However you built that, may I ask why you are missing two EMS transfers?

Size is the main factor. Got to pack it all in. I can get them, but not keep my size. Im working towards getting them, and if my team does go to nationals, I will have them.

Is using a nichrome wire melting a fishing line legal because it is heated up from electricity? Since it is used to take up time, and a rule says adjustments to take up time cannot be electrical, but the transfer is electric -> thermal -> mechanical, the thermal -> mechanical is what takes up time but it is involved with electricity? Haha XD

I struggled with this in the beginning of the year a bit, but I realized that every electrical transfer takes time; it's the intentional adjusting of it to manipulate the time that is illegal.

Wow..! this forum just got real. Someone seems confident *cough*. I hope you make it to nationals so we can see this magical mission of you speak of. Sounds absurdly impressive and downright frightening all at the same time- I'd love to see it.

Any new updates from this weekends invites? Interested in whats out there. The confidence comes from the scores I've been seeing from the national regulars.
