Number 1 problem when programming: the builders dont recognize you as needed for the robot to run. They expect us to just program the whole bot and when THEYRE done, we just 'tweak' a few things and its miraculously running. The robot doesnt need to be built in 6 weeks, it needs to be built AND programmed. If i had had time with the 'bot', things wouldve gone much differently...
