I'm assuming the fanatical response to my posts is only a result of humor not transferring well over the interwebs. . .
Oh well, I do have to say this is somewhat entertaining.

Once again, good luck to all the teams that submitted apps. Hopefully enough documentation will be made available on the web for teams that don't have a beta test site in their area.

Edit: Just to clear things up further, I never had any serious intention to actually circumvent the character limit. Shoulda' made that clearer ;)

Big thanks to all the teams willing to do this beta test. It will be a huge amount of work and immensely valuable to the FIRST community.

HOT has submitted an application for the beta test. Like Dave said, we had issues with the 2500 character limit, but we got it down under the limit for submission.

TechnoKats are in the stack! or something.

I submitted Team 45's application this morning. The comments about character limits confuse me -- I was at 2481 after saying everything I needed to.

This is the most poorly designed application form I've ever seen.

How so?

We submitted a while ago and we're eager to hear from FIRST and finally show NJ teams what we've got :)

And you're only saying that because you didn't have to input a Brazilian phone number - it just doesn't work! ;)

Other than that, we're happy with our submission and hope for the best to be selected.


PS - 2500 characters isn't even a full page! :ahh:

Teams 100, 254, and 668 have submitted joint applications, and look forward to a chance at being selected for the beta test.

The fields for awards information are clunky and they're certainly not doing any favors for someone trying to submit awards information for more than one team.

It seems like the entire thing could've been better integrated into TIMS to poll for that sort of information and then presented it to the judging panel in a more organized manner.

VIMS ranks up there...

Team 1261 submitted three days ago. :D.

We, and 3 other FTC teams, await eagerly. :D.

Okay, I just submitted an application on behalf of most of western Washington. I'm not even going to try naming everyone.

Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/Invitation to Beta test the New Control System
 
Teams 125 and 246 have submitted together.

Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/Invitation to Beta test the New Control System
 
Team 987 also submitted an application and look forward to a chance to learn and share...

Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/Invitation to Beta test the New Control System
 
Teams 39 and 842 have submitted a joint application as well. Looking forward to it.
