You heard me, a fiasco.

So my team takes our robot to the address given to us. There is indeed a shipping company located there. But they had never heard of FIRST, or this thing about shipping the robots out to the Family Arena (where the stl. regional is held).

Apparently, the company the signed the contract with FIRST is bogus, and they listed the company that we took our robot to as a 'sister' company. No one at the place we took our robot had ever heard of the company that signed the contract with FIRST.

Now, what are we supposed to do in this situation? Its around 4:00 on thursday.

Lucky for us, another local team was there. Our moderators persuaded the guys to let us put our crates in their warehouse (they refused to even touch the crates, much less sign for them). Then, our moderator signed that the other team had their robot there before 5, and the other moderator signed that we had ours there before 5.

I'm still not sure what is in store for our bot. I just hope they call us if they plan on hauling our crates out to the street for the trashmen to pick up.
