Re: Robot Design: If there isn't a vote, who makes the decisions?

Voting for designs is a bad idea. Voting usually promotes what is cool or funny, not what is best for the team.
Like Mr. Cool said, voting leads to animosity, aggravation, and an adversarial environment.
In my experience, deep, thoughtful discussions, usually aided by a version of JVN's WOT, lead to the correct-for-the-team solution making itself obvious.
