THEN The sql tables failed and we had to back up to and old old backup and loose most of the stuff I had done.

I hated this year in terms of the website, last year was way more fun, with a cool mentor and helpful team members.
No that would be Duane ( I worked in animation) and he knew more about web design than Kenny and Mookie who worked mostly in Mechanisms but were good sports about it.
They updated the website from last year and focused on the CAD page.

And by the way you might want to think twice about bashing your mentors on a public messageboard and take it up in private.
They are volunteers and could have easily found something else to do instead of giving their time to the team so you can publicly assassinate them in front of all of the other teams. Irregardless of what you think about them or how they work they still deserve some measure of respect.
