I would say our team is about a 9....we lost a whole week due to an ice storm....we would be at a 10 but we figured out what kind of drive train we are going to use today

5

Don't you hate how a bunch of small, insignificant changes can bring the whole system down?

Low stress now...plenty of time, robot weight is not a problem.

High stress is when the robot is >20 lbs overweight the weekend before ship!

Don't let it happen to you!

Probably only a 3 right now, as we have our chassis & transmissions assembled and are working on our tower/ramp base structure at the moment, plus the only thing left to really decide on is how to exactly do the ramps.

I'd say just a week ago or so I was at a 9 though, since we were rushing to get our Championship PO through as well as get all the information for paying for it to students, while working out a t-shirt quote and finding presents for my girlfriend's birthday in the midst of it all.

Well right now i am not that stressed but we have some goals on our team that have a deadline of next Tuesday so as it gets closer to that date I will be feeling more stressed.

The real stress though comes as we get closer to ship date

Right now the lack of sleep doesn't let us realize that we are stressed. Wait a few weeks and let the sleep deprivation build up and suddenly BAM stress.

I can't believe that no one is stressed :ahh: Even though things are running smoothly with 492 I am afraid that something will pop-up, something will go wrong. Maybe I am just paranoid.

Oh yeah, stress level: 8.

Yesterday about a 6, today down to a 3 (due to solid construction progress), tomorrow: the sky is the limit.

This time last year, we hadn't even decided on a final design.

This year, we have a moving base, a solid arm design, control system plans, and a rough electronics board.

Stress level is about a 4, just because I had finals last week and yesterday. It's going down now...whee!!

If it weren't for that bloody rack, we'd be at a 2.
Instead, we're looking 7-ish. Not in panic mode yet, but the finger's not that far away from the button.

Our Team is about a 3, we have been working diligently and have a good thing going now, but we usually have our robot done in the last week, so we dont get stressed until about week 5 1/2 and we dont have anything except our drivetrain together :eek:

Stress let's me know I am still awake.

We are in a...decent...place as far as building is concerned. Dynamically as a team is another boat in another ocean. If things stay on track. We should have a moving bot within 96 Hours.
