On the first weekend (kickoff weekend) the team usually gets together to talk about what we are going to have the robot do, like having a climbing device(2010) or having a minibot (2011). Then we usually start coming up with concepts for this. Usually at this point the strategies start to develope, with everyone coming up with new designs and new ways to accomplish the tasks. Throughout the rest of the 6 weeks, and up until our competitions we create a few diffrent strategies and would choose which one we would be using for that match, this would be the drive team and other alliance drive teams "discussion". When the Elimination alliances are picked right before lunch we got together with the other teams we were with and all decided what we wanted to do, and who was doing what. After matches talk about what went right, what went wrong and how it can be changed to benefit the alliance later on in eliminations, this will go on until the competition is over. Then, since we have a parent video tape all matches, The drive team would continue watching old matches and what we need to improve for the next competition/championships.
