I posted our forms for the Autodesk Award for Visualization about 3 days ago, but now it's not there... now , I'm wondering, was this Autodesk taking them off there to make room, or has someone possibly removed them? We still have our folder to upload our finished animation to, so I'm assuming it's ok... maybe I'm just paranoid, I don't know. If need be, I could always re-upload them. :confused:

To be safe I would eMail them and see what happened. They could've deleted to make more room (since the site ran out of space!) or someone could've deleted them (not sure if you could do that, but you could view other peoples forms). I didn't understand why they enabled other teams to view the information in those documents.

I think mailing the forms was another option, you didn't have to post it on Streamline. The forms in Word format are posted on Streamline under 2004 FIRST Competition and under the folders Inventor Award Criteria & Visualization Award Criteria.

I just viewed the site and ours is not in the list either! What's going on? I'll probably email them tonight once I get home.

Most likely Autodesk has just taken them off Steamline to clear room, because I don't see 103's form on there either, and I remember that one being on there for sure while we uploaded ours.

If you get a response back from Autodesk, let us know, but I'm not too worried since our team number's folder is still there in that animation submition folder.

Ed, take a deep breath. If you know you uploaded is on Sunday, then you did. Again, I speculate Autodesk is removing forms off Steamline to make more room for teams since the folder was full at one point. Check the folder that's for submitting your final animation and see if your team number is there. If not, I would suggset e-mailing autodesk and asking them if they are removing forms to make room. If other FIRST-ers are deleting them, that's an incredibly ungracious move by them... but we can't be held accountable for others' actions. If you uploaded your form, you shouldn't be liable from that point on.

Yeah, my forms aren't up there either and I posted them Friday all filled out (I checked them over like 20 times to make sure nothing got missed) I've e-mailed their support e-mail before and never had any response.

Yea this is annoying...i spent a lot of time trying to post them yesterday and i believe the server went down...but its a holiday so tech support is gone...so we sent autodesk and email and were FINALLY able to post it today. i really hope that they dont disqualify us on a stupid thing like that...i mean how un-FIRST like is that?

I really doubt that it was someone who was just being malicious, I think they'd find it odd if only one team had an entry form. They pulled down all of the forms that were posted previous to Sunday, so that makes me think they cleared house and dumped them somewhere offline. They really need to lock the files once they are uploaded.

I just looked in the recycle bin and found my forms in there! :ahh:

They probably archived them to save space, they are still there, they just moved them to make room. Monday night they had no more space left, you'll notice all forms posted before Monday are the ones gone.

I see, because I posted ours on Sunday as well. By the way, what is autodesk's support email?

I just went back to streamline and I don't think it's much of a threat anymore. I think autodesk is just looking at the forms and creating folders for all of the teams who are submitting an animation. For some reason though, I don't see a folder for my team. Not even in the rookies section for final submissions.

Matt Hallock

Yeah, my team doesn't have one either, it's getting frustrating because our animation is done and I don't feel like uploading 240 megs to a website that keeps getting full on Sunday night.

Called Autodesk today and they said they were working on it.

Keep us posted, I hope they figure something out... or I may just skip the hassle of uploading and mail our animation.

Yeah, I just hope that we don't have to repeat the laborous process of re-uploading everything again.

I recieved an e-mail from them today saying that the submissions were moved to make room, they were not deleted and all were accounted for.
