In regards to the date that the robots for the FIRST competition should be shipped (discussed
September 12, 2000):
I vote neither--
I see where you may be coming from, however- I think that those dedicated few
who spend hundreds of hours working on robots and other preparations have enough
stress already. Adding those seemingly few days (between 0 and 8), may be
advantagious to the team but I fear for those who have jobs, families, schoolwork,
spouses, children, and any other people involved in their lives (hopefully all of us). I
feel that we should keep the six week build time as a maximum, not only would it
give team members a small break; it would also give the added challenge of a shorter
time limit (much as in real-life engineering tasks for many automobile manufacturers).
