Re: Bag, Bagging, In The Bag Terms from Michigan Teams
sounds like a great idea.. Saves wood also...

The only thing i see with this is the possibility of a team being ungracious and possibly finding a way around the zip tie...

Just a thought...

I think that has been a concern on many people's mind with this system, but it is what it is. Its an honor system just like the fix-it windows were.

Re: Bag, Bagging, In The Bag Terms from Michigan Teams
Also each tie wrap you put on the bag has a distinct serial number. And the numbers must be recorded by a third party individual.

Re: Bag, Bagging, In The Bag Terms from Michigan Teams
I was wondering if we have a fix-it window for this year's competitions. I've looked through the rules and at a few different websites but I can't find any information on it. If anyone can help me out with this, I would be very grateful. Thanks.

There is honor within and among many teams. That breaks down to meaning, there is honor among many mentors, students, and team supporters. That breaks down to meaning, there is honor among individuals and, accountability for one's actions as an individual and as a team is what establishes and maintains the honor. As Joe J. says, it is what it is. The process sounds very well thought out and implemented.

Another question - How did you get the robots in them without ripping the bags? I guess they can be 'stored' on their carts?

Re: Bag, Bagging, In The Bag Terms from Michigan Teams
Just bagged ours at little before the 5pm deadline.

Overall it is a really interesting process. It also feels much better knowing that while in a bag, the bot is in your control. I had been doing the shipping for our bot the last few years and that was a huge pain. Plus the worry that maybe it will get lost or damaged.

Handling is a little interesting. There is a little extra room so that we grab ahold and move it around.

Overall I like it so far.
