Re: FIRST website is an embarasment
Yeah, FIRST definitely needs to check on how that system is operating. Things I've noticed this year:
1. I was good for YPP screening with my old team, but when I started a new team as a lead mentor, I wasn't good any longer. I thought YPP was about the individual?
2. Lead Mentor YPP changing unexpectedly. We registered for our second regional event a week ago, and both lead mentor YPP status was green. Now, one of us (not me, so it's not related to my #1 above) is no longer green. No change of team, no change of name, no change of address, just one week to the next.
3. Another local area team saw their parent invites disappear.
4. Texas is so big that if you search by ZIP code with the maximum radius for events, you often get no results. You need to leave the ZIP code blank to get the full state results. Ironically, providing extra information invalidates your search.
