I know that my team didn't get to brainstorming on Saturday and we might not get to it on Monday. (I don't think this is bad, I really like the strategy sessions.)
Scoring breakdown and game evaluation -- Yesterday.
Strategy and game play discussion/evaluation/decision -- Today.
Robot design starts on Monday, concentrating on drive base first, then payload.
Field Mockups done by this coming Saturday.
Initial drive base ready by this Saturday.
