Go to Post If said device costs 10x more to manufacture than a simpler solution integrating COTS parts, and only performs 10% better, that's poor engineering. - Cory [more]

Keep it up teams!

Keep it up everybody! Only one week left!

I saw a thread like this my freshman year posted by Ken Leung, and I thought I'd post something similar because it was a real pick-me-up.

It's the last week, and it's time to perservere. It doesn't matter what position you're in it's crunch time. However, don't lose sight of things. Be careful not to overstress yourself. Try not to get sick (it stinks to do an all-nighter when you're sick). Don't lose sight of your teammates (leaders, this means you). Make sure they aren't getting burnt out after 5 and a half weeks of robotics. Encourage them and tell them to keep up the great work.

Keep working guys! I hope to see some great robots at the regionals. And just think, in a week, you'll be sleeping (if you believe in sleep, of course).

And most of all, don't forget to have fun!

-Daniel

Re: Keep it up teams!

I didn't see sleep in the KOP
Can you buy it as a COTS?
Whatever it is, you only have the Fix-It window to use it

Take care and try not get burned out....like me

Re: Keep it up teams!

good luck to all
remember
if you get 6-8 hours sleep , you will probably get more done when your awake.
you can have 6 hours extra working on it with no sleep, so the work will be haphazard,less safe and lower quality. or you can have some decent sleep, work more efficiently and with more energy and therfore with a higher quality.
Sleep my friends
(and its 930 am here, before someone notices the time of my post )

That's because it starts on Sunday and ends on the second Tuesday.
