WCP CADathon 2024: DunkTank

im CADiddcted to feedback and design review

Yā€™all just had to go and make your submissions too good! Round 2 of judging is taking longer than weā€™d have hoped because weā€™re having such a hard time narrowing down the results. Our goal is to have things finished this weekend - weā€™ll keep you updated on that!

In the meantime, we have the results of the Peopleā€™s Choice Award! Hundreds of votes later, the battle for the top was close, but a clear victor emerged. Weā€™re excited to announce Team Fusion 364 as our 2024 WCP CADathon Peopleā€™s Choice winners!

You can find their CAD model and documentation here:

Team Fusion, we will be reaching out to you soon regarding your prize! For the rest of you, hang tight just a little longer, we promise itā€™ll be worth the wait! You still have the most important prize of all - the friendships we made along the way. If friendship doesnā€™t do it for you, the fun prizes will be coming soon!

I canā€™t show all the votes but Iā€™ll show the points for the top 20 or so teams. Points are calculated by adding up 3 points for every 1st choice vote, 2 points for every 2nd choice vote, and 1 point for every 3rd choice vote.

Are the voting results going to be published after the actual judging results or just not at all? Thanks for the great cadathon btw!

Probably not at all, I donā€™t think releasing the specifics publicly will help teams get better or improve the team experience.

Sorry about that I donā€™t wanna add any more pressurešŸ˜„

Hopefully weā€™ll have more info this evening. Apologies for the delay, my fiancĆ© has been hospitalized for the past week so I havenā€™t been able to invest as much time into this as originally planned (sheā€™s okay, I just canā€™t do judging from the hospital).

Sheā€™s much better now, hoping to be home in a day or so. Definitely not gonna be able to get results out tonight. My focus is making sure sheā€™s comfortable and taken care of, and her focus is yelling at the TV because Charles is getting beat by Alpine of all teams and she refuses to believe this is even a possibility (she hasnā€™t finished the race yet, I donā€™t have the heart to tell herā€¦)

Is any feedback being given to teams that didnt move on?

If you want feedback on your design, there are plenty of experienced people who can review it for you on Davidā€™s Design Server (FRC Design/CAD server with 1800 people)

The best way I have found to share a video is make a YouTube video and share the link in the thread.
