Your FIRST regional director may be able to provide you with appropriate points of contact, or may be able to forward your notes on to the right person. But FIRST will be the pass-through for the communications, and not the ones that make any decisions about submissions.

If anyone gets an email to contact Autodesk, I for one would like it to explain the situation.

Still haven't gotten a reply from FIRST.

"Hello,

We are aware of the issues some teams experienced and we are sorry your team has run into trouble. We are finding that the time it took to upload was very long and teams either did not realize it was still uploading and started clicking around terminating the upload, or there were internet/network issues or restrictions that caused them to see the page not found timeout page. We are working to accommodate teams to ensure they still have a way to submit.

If you would like to still submit for inclusion in the competition ....you may

2) Zip up your files and the answers to the questions on a word document in one zip file....please be sure to name the file with Your team name and number
3)Submit the Zip file at http://files.dcheetah.com attention FIRST Support.
4) Submit by 5 PM CST today February 18th ...

We will submit your entry for you.
