Internet at competitions

Kids should already be motivated to build the best robot they can, and learn as much as they can. They shouldn't need extra incentives. - Matt382 [more]

Re: Internet at competitions

ah, I get it.

I guess this won't be a problem for me next year at Palmetto--since I'm going to be a USC student at that point, I'll have all the authorization I need to access their networks, including wirelessly.

Just to throw out an idea to y'all and see what happens...what if someone with authorization to access the internet would IM or text team members with queuing info, match scores, and the like?
