Re: Happy about Field problems & people management & severe weather @ Championship

I am glad that we didnt panic. I was texted by a friend that said we are in a tornado warning and then I was told that the other team representative and I need to get up to the stands (we were on the floor watching Einstein matches). We walked over where a group of people were standing and glanced outside. The weather was insane! A weather lover like myself, who has an obsession with storms and all that jazz, was in complete awe! We ended up getting in the stands by going near the Galileo field. I could hear the tornado Siren over the music and the hail didnt help.

With the technical issues Einstein was having, maybe the frequency from the lightning caused some of these issues. I think thats something we should all consider. I liked how they dealt with the issues. They waited for a little bit and then said we are going to start with a clean slate. I dont recall anymore issues but I know Robonauts and other teams were having issues for the longest time.

With the frequency of the lightning even Wi-fi and etc has issues! (coming from Florida, my home's wireless has issues when we have a lot of lightning in the area)

I am extremely grateful that we didnt have a twister on the ground. That wouldve stressed everyone out to the extreme.

Also how everyone handled the Finale party, was awesome! The City Museum was so COOL but extremely claustrophobic! lol
