Re: "The 24" - Off-season Idea

So teams brought air mattresses, sleeping bags, etc. Something like this gives teams flexibility in sleeping shifts and such.

-Definitely would need 3 or 4 shifts of volunteers.

-And to go a full 24 hours you would need a lot of matches and therefore a lot of teams.
Or you could have just 6 teams in a Frisbee-recycling 24 hour long match. Thus a real endurance test for the robots involved.
