Vex Robotics

A high schools robotics competition that requires vast amounts of money and supplies to compete in, as the cost of parts is ridiculous to the point that you are wondering why you are spending so much of the schools budget on this instead of flying cars for the students.
Half of the expensive parts you will buy will bend, snap, or get lost or stolen.

Each year there is a new game that teams must compete in that is vaguely similar to the others and requires almost the same skillset and tools.

The rulebook is longer than any textbook you will ever procrastinate reading. Everyone on your team will keep telling you to read it, and you never will.

"Oh no! Our robot is 1/16 of an inch too tall for inspection! I guess we have to shave down the top of it for the next 30 minutes or we won't be able to compete! I love Vex Robotics!"
