Message for TerraBots: requesting switching time slot for challenge

General

Hello TerraBots, we could have some problem with our time slot for the final challenge so we would like to ask if you would like to switch your time slot with ours.
We have the time slot before yours, it starts at 16:00 CEST, it should be your local 9 am.

Please let me know if you agree to the switch :slight_smile:

Hello,

We are also facing issues with our time slot for the final challenge and are willing to exchange our slot with yours. Our slot starts at 11:00 CEST. If any other team is willing to exchange their slot with us, that would be great too.

Let us know if this works for you!

Hi Alessio,
Unfortunately, we’re unable to change our time slot, as we need to travel for at least an hour to reach our university campus for the challenge. Because of this, it would be difficult for us to attend an earlier slot than the one assigned.

Ok, no problem guys :slight_smile:

Just making sure that everyone found a way of attending - is there anything we can do to help with this issue or have you managed to sort things out?

Yes we will attend at our time slot of 16 CEST, thank you for your concern

Our current slot overlaps with the university lecture timings of team members. We kindly request to reschedule it to any time after 14:00 CEST (17:30 IST) on 29 July.

Thanks,
IITB Mars Rover Team

That’s a tough one (if no other Team has an opportunity to start earlier) as we’re already stretching the time limits for the venue. (Assuming we’re talking about 26th of August :P)

At this moment I see two options (all times in CEST):

  1. If you were able to make 13:30 then we probably can move all the mornig slots start 30 minutes earlier and the evening slots 30 minutes later. On such a short notice even this would be a stretch though. I don’t think I’d be comfortable doing this without confirmation from all the other Teams.
  2. The only slot that have not yet expressed any time constraints and fits your constraint is SHUNYA. As it’d require the least amount of changes - I’d be willing to award them, let’s say 10 points, if SHUNYA agrees to such swap.

Dear ERC Organizers,

We discussed with our team, and we are willing to swap our time slot (6:00pm IST) with IITB’s time slot (2:30 pm IST). Thank you

Regards,
Team Shunya

Great to hear that. We will start with you then

Just curious, as we did swap the timeslots… if the 10 points are awarded.
Thank You
Team SHUNYA

Yup. We’re awarding points in multiple series - those particular ones have already been recorded (but not published yet).
