We're very informal as compared to other teams. Basically, we take a break after the kickoff and the 'team leaders' convene at a central place (this may happen differently now that the EduBot competition is going on, so we may do something different). Usually what happens is we sit around looking at the kit and discussing potential strategies and basically how the game works. Last year for example, we figured out all the types of robots there'd be, contrasted that with how we'd work cooperatively, and basically calculated throught logic and math what would be ideally the best way to go. This of course changes later on in subsequent brainstorming meetings where the team splits up into groups and offers ideas. For the first week, no prototypes are built, and nothing is assembled (except perhaps the gearbox, which is ongoing).
