Re: 11:59 p.m. deadline: Start or finish bag & tag?

Section 5.1 of the Admin Manual states:
"You may work on your robot until midnight local time on Stop Build Day."

R15 of the Game Manual states:
"All ROBOT elements ... must be bagged and sealed, by 11:59PM local time on Stop Build Day."
Welcome to ChiefDelphi! I would highly encourage you to have your robot bagged and tagged by 11:59PM tonight, if you don't, you'll run into issues at your first event. Be sure to also have an adult sign off on your bag and tag form stating that you did so. Make sure to keep the form in a safe place, as you'll need it when you load-in to your event(s)!
