Re: What member go to competitions?
Our team is relatively small (last year I believe we ran 12 or so students strong, and about half only came to occasional practices), and has taken all of the students who have wanted to come both years (we are going to be a third year team this year).
We had the maximum number of students in the pit most of the time, and the "excess" students were in the stands ing, or walking around scouting. Who was in the pit was determined by who needed to be in it (ex. the programmers were there quite often, the captain was always there, our mentors were there, key drive train people were there, etc.). This year we have more people, and if everyone comes again, it will probably be about the same. If, for example, we have a subsection that deals with funds and publicity, they probably wont be in the pit with the bot very much.
Although this thread does bring up some points I should bring up. We really haven't been able to leave students behind yet, simply because we haven't been big enough, but this year we may have to.
