Re: [FTC]: Teams with >10 members

Holy what?! 53?

Obviously I'm not a part of your team, and don't know with certainty what's best for you, but I'd consider splitting. You can still pool together for outreach and fundraising and the like, but there have got to be a lot of your students who are left out of the build process.

I've seen ten-person teams who have trouble with people not getting to work on the robot. 53 sounds like a nightmare to me.

Again, if it works for you, that's great, but it sounds insane to me.
