Well that sounds familiar! Let's see....a teammate and I made a list of people we thought were "frequent contributors" so we could keep a smaller contact list. There are 27 people on that list. If you take away the people we probably should have left off the list =) as well as animation, chariman's and webteam, it becomes 16. (Not that those subteams aren't important, but it means we have 16 on our build team.)
If you think about it, 16 people can build a robot. We're planning recruitment to make up for graduating seniors and to get more people working on those "other" things. (The animation and web design and all that.) Our required school cirriculum is actually pretty heavy in Inventor, so I think we could have an Autodesk team. You need to use info like that to play to your strengths and figure out what your team should and shouldn't try for.
But I personally think that you can build a robot with only a handful of really dedicated people. Actually, it's more like I have complete confidence in the fact that really dedicated people can do
anything. Especially really dedicated FIRST people. =)
Who doesn't love having a full list of spotlight quotes to pull from? =)
