Re: How do you organize your team?

Wow. I'm going to have to agree with Koko Ed, if you're team can't support itself before you even start the season, there will be HUGE problems. Team 1418 has neither assigned nor delegated tasks for anything. While this may not work for larger teams, we have made it through the best and the worst together. If we were in trouble for fundrasing, we all got our butts up and started begging for money. As for who's doing certain tasks (pnumatics, drive train, etc.), it just kind of happens. We laugh, joke and sure, argue about the dumbest things. But we're happy doing this and we love what we do. We're not here to just build robots and compete compete compete. Service hours and other systems for participation that inhibit the true spirit of the competition are not required. We love what we do, we love FIRST, and we all have this in common. That, in my opinion, is what makes a true FIRST team.
