Smile How is your team spending Wednesday night? (in pits)

706 will be on a train most of the day Wednesday, but when we arrive, we have a few things to work on. We need to Install our upgraded shooter, install upgraded conveyor pulleys, and work on implementing code changes. (getting inspected is also on the list)

I was just wonder what other teams plan to do Wednesday night.

Re: How is your team spending Wednesday night? (in pits)

Our team is going to an Arch tour and then most are going back to the hotel. Then we have 5-6 people going to pit setup, inspection, upload new code, and change out a few upgradeds with their old counterparts.

Installing our new intake(971 style), and if they'll let us, getting pictures of the goals on the field for camera calibration(Though lighting has yet to really effect us at different venues).

Re: How is your team spending Wednesday night? (in pits)

Getting through inspection ASAP, pit set up, then testing/tweaking & conferences. I'be never been to one so looking quite forward to the latter.

Re: How is your team spending Wednesday night? (in pits)

Priority #1: Get your robot through inspection.

One or more team members who are not busy with priority #1 should attend Karthik's seminar on strategy.

Getting our shooter reinstalled (Took it off for more distance testing), getting our bridge arm installed (Secret weapon), Getting inspected, then hopefully grabbing a meal, might stop by 51's pit, see what signatures I can get, and then go back to the hotel and chill.

Re: How is your team spending Wednesday night? (in pits)

Are we allowed to switch who the 5 "team reps" are during the evening Wednesday? As long as we don't have more than 5 inside at any one time? It says they won't be giving arm bands, either.
