Re: Pit Crews

For jobs we have:

Drive Team: Three members; the Human Player also does PR, the driver is a programmer and Team Captain, the button monkey (runs the xbox controller) and drive captain are probably the two most capable mechanical people on the team.

Pit Crew: One "battery manager," the two mechanical people from the drive team, and maybe one extra from the stands.

Programmers: One non-drive team programmer (me) and the drive team programmer.

Public Relations: Two people, so either or both can talk to judges (also helps with times when multiple teams are pit scouting our team)

Mentors: One to three mentors, depending on what's broken.

Other than that, our safety captain is also the button monkey (not much happens in the pit when the robot is in a match, mostly cleanup and PR)

EDIT:
Total number of people: 8-10
