Re: Scouting app overload
3620, 2767 and 2959 all tried to get together this year. The issues we came up with were that we couldn't agree on any one system.

One wanted to use a custom app like the previous few years. (2959)

Another wanted to use an "off the shelf" product

Another wanted to use an excel solution they had used previously.

One wanted absolutely live data.

We all had very different ideas of what we wanted and to be fair no one was right and no one was wrong. It is like saying 3 teams build identical robots, come to a consensus.

Figure out the data you want to take and then figure out the quickest way to take this data (we started on the way home from World's last year).
