I was just wondering if anybody has received their website excellence award yet?
I heard they were supposed to be sent out after ATL.

Maybe our website just wasn't good enough to get it :(
Thanks

I believe they came in May last year, I don't know if they've showed up yet this year.

I got mine about 30 minutes ago, and it looks like they were all sent in a batch :)

Like everyone else said, they came today. 245 got theirs and it's on our website (http://adambots.com) now.

I guess they decided to send them early this year.

I sent an email asking for our feedback and they said that they'd send any feedback they got from the judges on to us. I'll post back if we get anything.

We only got a Excellence banner even though we won the VCU Regional website. Does the best website come in another email?

is there a public list (outside of emails) that contains all teams that recieved the award?

our team contact info may be outdated in TIMS, and i want to find out if we got Excelence or not...

thanks,

Can you explain in further detail?
Was this done for every regional?

I'm not exactly sure. I contacted FIRST through FiM and I eventually got to the right person who said they'd send them if they got them.

Ours came in two separate e-mails to two different contacts. The Regional Website went to the Website contact on FIRST Awards and the Excellence e-mail came to the main contact on FIRST Awards.

Didn't get our yet, so I started looking around.
I checked firstawards.org under "Website Award", and "The website's contact email you submitted is" is blank. I see how that could interfere with emailing us :P
Who could I contact?

I asked for our comments from the person who sent our website award/excellence award to us. Just got our comments a couple of minutes ago! (:

i sent a request for comments, but never got a reply... oh well...

it's understandable though, since they allready have enough work to do...

1089 got their Philadelphia regional BWA and Website Excellence banners a week or so ago.

As far as comments go, it depends on the event. like this year we got comments at NJ, and not last year. It really depends on the lead evaluator for the event and if they have the time to put the comments together

One of our teams won Best Website at NYC but received a website excellence. Who should they contact to receive the correct banner?

Thank you!

Thank you!This most likely means that they also were recognized with the website excellence award. So they didn't get the wrong one, they are just missing one. In our case they came to different e-mail addresses. Check to see who the Website contact was in FIRST Awards- that's where our Best Website banner was sent.
