	The Placebo was a series of stand-in "placebo" robots that were used between 1995 and 1998.

Placebos were not used during the quarterfinal, semifinal, and final one-on-one best two out of three format rounds, only the earlier one-on-one-on-one double-elimination tournament.

	A demo, for the purposes of the archive, is a typically (but not necessarily) public demonstration of a team or teams' robots to show off their accomplishments and get the community interested in FIRST. Demonstrations mainly differ from [[Scrimmage\|scrimmages]] and [[Offseason\|offseasons]] in that they do not always run complete or traditional matches or follow a structured match schedule like a regular event. Photographs or other materials that are related to a demonstration should be tagged demo.
