Who needs soap operas when you have FIRST?

Fortunately, we are working with a local college that has competed in FIRST before. We are a bit behind schedule, but WILL have our frame running tomorrow evening (basically, it MUST lol). group dynamics have become a very big thing and since everyone has their own separate opinion on everything, conflicts ensue

As other teams have also noticed, several students (myself included) appear to be devoting their lives to first, others work occasionally, and we have had a few members quit / not show up. It is all good though, as we are realizing many things that must be changed next year and many things that should stay the same. However, at this point we need to focus on getting THIS years robot working instead of NEXT years

Some of our groups work more efficiently than others, and some get work done faster than others. This has created some problems, especially since the drive train group seems to be the most behind schedule, which holds the rest of us up. However, it will be running tomorrow evening as I said, and we will move on. All in all, I think we are holding up quite well and look forward to competing at our local regional and then on to nationals!
