@Kraigo I noticed your name on liking this, how many Roboteer affiliated Shecks are there, Emily coordinated voulenteers last year, and Kevin is helping with cordination this year, and here you are. It the last name of Sheck required to be on the Roboteers?

The last name Sheck links to Team 4329s Beginning with my father (Kevin Sheck) and Dave Zilz who founded our team. so affiliated Shecks have been found since the beginning, Im the youngest so im the last student Sheck but yes the Sheck name is found within the team, Emily will most likely be coordinating, Kevin is still sort of leading the program, and my brother Kyle Sheck will most likely also be found either at the competition or maybe volunteering.

TLDR its a family name which includes 1 current student and 3 mentors.

Had a couple duplicate signups that I am not certain (did not indicate on signup form) if they are intended to be B bot signups or just duplicates so not adding those for now

We are excited to come compete at GRC again! Looking at the schedule on the website I can’t tell if teams are allowed to load in Saturday morning? I think we have the longest drive and are trying to avoid hotel costs.

Yes load in Saturday morning is just fine. I’ll reach out to the committee and get a time for that.

Edit: @crh_redbird1 doors open 7am

GRC is live at https://twitch.tv/firstupdatesnow

Will FUN have GRC matches posted to youtube? I know there was on event on twitch and another on YouTube so I wasn’t sure if the matches were recorded.

For events streamed on FUN we typically turn the rights over to the event to do what they want with it. Currently that would be on GRC to splice and archive. In our streaming document that we provide to events we strongly recommend that events save a local recording so they can do this.

@Emerson1706
Do you know what GRC plans to do for match videos. If the event stream was saved by GRC will they be releasing somewhere?

Let me reach out to Luke and see what his plans are

Update: all matches should be uploaded this week besides elims 3-10 when the stream went down.
