Bill's Blog - What do you mean this is the last full week before CMP?
Bill mentions no new information regarding anything happening on Friday or Saturday night of the Championships, nor any news about the field layout in the dome/pits. He mostly discusses the FRC Live topics, including the future of game design. Other tid-bits: the Q&A is now closed, and particularly innovative teams, such as those filing patents, should contact Bill directly.

no idea...our team only has 11 students, and a total of at least 22 people I believe are going to be at Championships from our team. (the extra 11 are mentors/parents) I have no idea if they will be attending the team socials however....

I would think get a hold of someone at FIRST soon or talk to pit admin when you get there about it. if that doesn't work, PM me and I'll see if I can find extra wristbands somewhere.

I don't think we'll be using all 30 of our allocation. Unless FIRST does something to put an unexpected constraint on distribution, I suspect that we as a community can make sure everyone gets to go to the

I'm hoping they will offer some way to get everyone in..I know quite a few Michigan teams with more than 30 kids. So, I'd certainly want to get all the kids in first. If they are all covered, we certainly would appreciate any spares you won't be using! Thanks so much! |

What Alex said, they're forgetting the C in FRC again.

I really wouldn't mind two pit fields IF there were more divisions and FTC/FLL expanded, not a rock concert. I really try to be supportive of FIRST's decisions but it is hitting a sad and hypocritical state. IMHO Yes this will be fun in some ways but no matter how fun or exciting something is, it doesn't validate the "why" in the equation. These rock stars our here to celebrate us and our machines not us celebrating them. |

Re: Bill's Blog - What do you mean this is the last full week before CMP?
I'm feeling more and more old school and antiquated with each passing blog. 'Team social' is not what comes to my mind when I read about Friday and Saturday nights. 'Entertainment events' is what comes to my mind.
Brendan - maybe in some ways, our leaders have lost vision or - their vision of FIRST has changed. I'm not sure what the intent is regarding what teams will be celebrating. That wouldn't be a GDC question - that would definitely be a FIRST HQ question if one were to pose it. It (the Championship) should be entertaining, that's for sure. That appears to be a keyword.
