Today, Big Brother Brand is hoping to finally actually finish programming its figure 8, and to begin on the Tetrahedron challenge and also building it on SolidWorks.
So, today (or everyday to be more accurate) the robot has decided that it does not want to cooperate with Big Brother Brand, and now we will fail an elective class, won't be able to graduate high school or go end up going to community college, and wont be at the top of our class because of an elective class. We've been working on this for weeks, and the zeroes just keep coming in and we will never finish, so our grade is going to remain an F. We very sincerely don't know what to do, and we've tried everything that Mr. Martin has told us to do: we've charged the battery, tightened the screws, made the environment clean, and even asked other groups for help, which is apparently not good enough to get our dumb robot to work. Now that we have free time (because we are done studying for testing), we will try to come in during study hall, and other free periods to work on the figure 8, but we will not finish every challenge by the end of the year.
Today we are still working on the figure 8, but now we are able to finally use the work space after a long discussion with the autodads. Now, since they deleted RobotC when they gave us the workspace, they put us behind, lacking the gracious professionalism that they are supposed to represent. Not that we weren't already 4 weeks behind, but they have no moral values and they've been wanting us to be behind for so long. So we've wasted the first 45 minutes of class reinstalling RobotC. I (Rom) I have a game plan for how I'm going to get work done in this class. Anyways, hopefully we can get our figure 8 done by the end of this week. Also, the photos for this week will be of Hunter because I am taking the pictures.
So it turns out that we cannot move forward without completing the figure 8. Big Brother Brand has found a possible solution to the issues it was having with the figure 8, so hopefully today we will be able to successfully complete it. We are saying "today" because today is the only day this week that we will be in engineering.
