I'm also super excited to be part of 'Snow Problem! Ri3D simulates a 6-week build season in 72 hours, and the important things teams do during build seasons aren't just CAD, game strategy, and manufacturing. Performing some of the non-technical workings of teams allows us to more openly share resources that are not as common in the FIRST community (Identity standards, social media strategies) and helps to improve the reach and educational effectiveness of our build folks. It's awesome to be part of increasing the breadth and variety of Ri3D, in technical and non-technical ways.
