This thread is now for the discussion of the lack of a pre-build list this year.

Re: Pre-build list
I believe it came out on Thursday for the last 3 years. Just enough time to get the materials for kickoff but not quite long enough to absolutely infuriate you thin king of what you could possibly build.
Pete Edit: in 2004 they made some last minute changes the night before kickoff so none of the remote kick-off fields were accurate. They may be working these issues out before sending the list. |

Re: Pre-build list
"This season, each team's decision regarding building field mockups may be a bit more complex than normal. The Game Design Committee feels
that an advance Bill of Materials (BOM) list might be misleading and cause some teams to buy more materials than they will likely use. Please wait for a full set of field drawings and their lower cost equivalents to be released immediately following Kickoff. Knowing the nature of this year's challenge, you can more logically decide what to buy and build." ---**FIRST EMAIL**/2007 FRC Manual Decryption and Bill of Materials Information |

That said, I don't know how they expect me to do my workshop at the Palmetto kickoff--they know good and well that us folks on teams will have this lodged in our heads all the way up to the reveal! |

Therefore, you wouldn't need to build anything for B if you didn't want to. I think that the Bill of Materials will be classified by these different tasks, so they don't want to release it now, as you would buy stuff for all of the tasks. Obviously after the Kickoff, you know the competition and you can decide which stuff to buy based on the tasks you are focusing on. |
