Wow, I was experiencing major Chrome crashing as well and switched to Firefox. Never would have guessed that their site was doing it. Apparently Chrome's sandbox isn't perfect...

Gmail was down for a time this morning and many Chrome users reported repeated crashing.

People win lots of money for breaking Chrome's sandbox http://arstechnica.com/business/2012...ser-on-friday/

Guess they're not at fault. Shucks. I was going to blame AndyMark for the fiscal cliff and the broken cord on my headphones too

Any word on when FIRST Choice will re-open and if there will be any re-stocking of items whether now or at kickoff? Our team experienced a lot of trouble as well. Also, is there any official confirmation that the password trouble was confined to <4 digit teams?

I haven't received any email blasts. FRC Blog has a short blurb saying that it will be down until they fix the problems. The AndyMark website has the same message as before.

They are probably figuring out how to deal with the orders in excess of the actual physical inventory for the parts that got magically restocked. They won't be able to come up with any tidy solutions to go back and fix that, unfortunately.

I had no issues with Chrome, but I was also done at 12:06, so maybe there were things later causing issues.

Not so ........ I couldn't get in for what seemed like an eternity (FRC-34). My order crashed twice at checkout, wound up missing what I really needed ...... a classmate(we're still using the origional issue classmate). Dang .......

Still love AndyMark ........ even though this kind of thing makes my hair turn gray.

I had no issues with chrome, however a period from 11:45-11:59 EST I had no connection with gmail, and it appeared their servers where down. I was relying on it to get the password from our teams TIMS contact to order the parts. Thankfully it reloaded at 12:00 right on cue! (Only to be followed by magical disappearance of cart items and changing of information with the AndyMark cart)

Hmmmm ....... Inventables seems to be confused about me using a PDV this year.

Tried to go back into FIRST Choice and noticed that the Log-in part of the main page is missing...seems AndyMark shut things down to de-bugg?

I think FIRST and AM are going about this the right way. It is a tough call to make.

Thank You!

Can anyone give me an idea of how many points items cost (eg. cRIO, Classmate, Talon, other "good" stuff) on the FIRST Choice?

I've tried both Chrome and IE and can see the items in FIRST Choice, but not their "costs." I was unable to log in today and would like to have a shopping list based upon the "cost" of the items.

Thanks.

Thanks.

These are the items I know for sure:

• Batteries - 10
• Air tank - 6
• cRIO - 9
• Battery charger - 10
• Compressor - 8
• Sidecar - 10
• Gyro - 7
• Air pressure switch - 6
• Air Regulator - 6
• CIM - 8
• Pressure gauge - 6
• Lithin grease - 7
• All graphics cards - 5
• Classmate - 10

Did anyone save a copy of the page? I didn't think to do that.
