Go to Post I've learned that the measure of success isn't the money you make, the education you get, or the car you drive. Your success can only be measured in the amount of people in whose lives you've made a difference and the size of your heart. - Amanda Morrison [more]

Practicing... A lot of good that'll do you

With this 2-day fix-it window, practice is nearly useless now. To build a second robot and test it out would have been an awesome thing to do last year, since I don't think there was a fix-it window. Now, if you make a second robot and practice with it to perfect programming and whatnot, you only have two days. After two days, your practice is OVER. Everyone must drop their tools and cease working on software and programming. Those are the rules.

Or maybe I'm wrong?

Two days is still better than nothing. Of course my team will work on perfecting the programming code after ship date, but that might be a bit difficult considering that our first bot is gone and, if we build a second bot, we'll only have two days to test and fix.
