First off, I'm tired and did not read through the thread fully. I'm also going to try to keep this short and simple.

From what I understand, you have an auger sitting at robotics waiting for programming and to be mounted, right?

What about your other idea? Is it sitting there waiting to be put on? I haven't heard you mention this at all?

I know when I design a robot, and my idea is not implemented, I feel bad, but I don't make a big argument over it. I go with the what the rest of the team wants.

I understand that your team doesn't want to go this approach though...

Whether or not your team wants to go with the auger design, you guys need to come up with a decision fast. Time is running out. Everything needs to start coming together now. If the other design has not been started yet, you should probably dump the idea. Give the programming team a few days to get something working. Make the robot aesthetically pleasing. Make sure it's wired up properly.

Fighting over a major design of your robot this late in the season is a big 'no no.'

I know if I had a working design sitting in front of me right now, I would definitely consider it.

My 2 cents.
