Re: Mt. Olive 2014 Footage and Match Length Issue

What I'm trying to say is I know we pay a lot of money to participate in an event every year, but I don't feel like we're paying FIRST to put the event on, I feel like we're paying as a group to make the event possible.

Yes, I know the FMS has an option to set auto time and teleop time. And it seems like maybe it auto reset to 10 seconds for auto and 120 for teleop, so whoever updated the FMS this year, possibly a volunteer, didn't fix this problem. And then Steven made a mistake not realizing the time was incorrect, I'd assume he's a volunteer. And then, what really gets me is that unlike all of the other times that people complain about 'FIRST', this time all any team had to do to fix the problem was realize there was a problem and notify the FTA like Hallry did and they would have fix the problem.

We all volunteer to do this, because another volunteer messed up we point fingers at the big entity that is FIRST as a scapegoat? You wouldn't use Steven as a scapegoat would you?
