the job fits the timespan...if we had an extra day, we'd be wraping up still...not really focusing our attention on any one part

Re: MOEmentum FYI: Week 6 - You mean There is a DEADLINE?!?!

Since its that time of build season...I think its important for teams to remember to not get frustrated if something isn't working properly. The only way to get it done right is to take your time, think clearly, and work together. The last week is when working as a team is the most important in order to end up with a great and functional robot. And have fun driving!

I like deadlines. I especially enjoy the whooshing sound they make as they pass me by.

Remember, the last week of build season means the first week of official scouting

Re: MOEmentum FYI: Week 6 - You mean There is a DEADLINE?!?!

We've been scouting this whole time! Since teams began posting things about their plans and robots.

Ah, if we had an extra day. File things, drive around, test auton mode and RoboControl. Probably practice putting the battery in and taking it out- we've got it down to 30 seconds with the 2007 robot. Make more scouting sheets, copies of the master scout sheet that stays firmly at the Pit so it doesn't get lost. Look through everything we're going to bring to Competition so nothing gets left behind, especially the Tip Dip. Pretty much, that extra day, we'll do far too much.
