Re: Kickoff Procedure?

190 typically sends a group to Manchester to attend/present workshops, go to the founders reception and watch the live kickoff. The rest of the team is back at WPI watching the webcast. Following that, those at WPI immediately begin straightening up the lab and preparing for the arrival of the KOP.

When the Kit arrives, a few people split off to build an approximately 1:12 scale field, while the rest inventory parts. Then we go play CRUD

The following day, we meet just before lunch, review the game release video, eat and then being brainstorming


971 sends 4 members to the local San Jose kickoff to watch the webcast and pick up the KOP. The rest of the team wakes up later and joins the returning 4 at school to view the kickoff video and begin KOP inventory and brainstorming.

Somewhere mid-Sunday I put a long-distance call in to 971 to discuss anything I've learned about the field and how it moves/reacts/works, and answer any questions they might have about it.
