When's the info coming? Huh? Huh? Huh?"
Unfortunately for this thread, that was all of the times I had to clarify my position, which I guess I'll do again... I'm not mad that NASA is taking long, or about anything they do, they are an amazing organization, but yet again, I (and I'm sure others) took their update message too literal, along with the accuracy of their procedure for detailing when the grant would be available along with them offering a new time frame if needed. I'm glad there are people here to at least somewhat agree with that, yes, it is not some sort of minute detail that it is not updated, entire teams (1,000s and 1,000s) of people have probably checked this update page, that much publicity is 1. not great for NASA 2. Somewhat frustrating for EVERYone 3. If they have time to read this complaint, I'm sure someone can be like hey, make Alex happy and put "We're going to be giving this out as soon as possible." or "there are issues holding us up right now, sorry for the inconvenience, or since all of you haters gonna hate we're gonna pass on first and try our luck with the other robotics options. . . just to clarify a point I already made, I already switched from wanting the grant money to I just want to know already and make a plan of action with or without it....January is getting pretty close.
