This can't be a good idea. 3.5 weeks? How in the hell do they expect us to get stuff from Small Parts Inc.???? We ordered chain and gears (only chain and gears) and it took 31 days to get to us! That's over four weeks. Harumph. Dean will get many a letter about this. They've got to let out manuals, goals and objectives, and materials lists the other 2.5 weeks earlier (and online at the same time) so teams can design their bot. I don't know about you guys, but we don't design and build at the same time. Dean has really got to have some common sense on this one. And not make SPI ordering necessary.
