Student on team #303, Vulgens Heroes, from Bridgewater-Raritan HS and Bihler.
HI! My name is Ben Mitchell, and I'm from Team 303, Vulgen's Heroes, based in New Jersey. A major part of the FIRST task is not based on robots, but on information and communication between teams. I've joined GMCIA to help bring data to my team, but pre-match communication would go a long way to open strategy discussions and spread ideas, as well as data on each other's robots. I've created an e-mail account to which teams can join a master list, and join collaberation efforts for data mining during next years task.
PLEASE: Coordinate on your team to who will jion, and make a team account, or designate a member as your contact address.
Include in your email your:
NAME
TEAM #
TEAM NAME
STATE
TOWN
(this format will be easier for me to organize, thanks)
THE ADDRESS IS:
TEAM303CONTACTS@hotmail.com
All enrolled will receive data on every other contributing team on my list, The result: send in your data, and get many others people's data. It can't hurt to sign-up, and the benefits of data before a match starts can be crucial.
Thank you, and I looked forward to swapping data with you next year. Good Luck!
