1) Don't break any bones.
2) 218C is not less intense than A or B, no matter who tells you.
3) Have a convention for power/GND connections to 2 pin molexes.
4) Inform the entire team of this convention before soldering occurs.
5) This is not a democracy, it's a cheerocracy.
6) Really work on making intermediate checkoffs. They're there for a reason.
7) Don't hesitate to ask a TA or Ed for help. They often can fix your issue in a fraction of the time it would take you, or at least make a helpful comment that will lead you to figuring out the problem quickly.
8) Be sure to stay late in the SPDL a couple nights before the project is due. That's when Ed brings donuts!
9) Have fun with the project and theme, seriously
10) State diagram your code before you start writing, and always have at least 2 people on the team know what's going on with a state machine/module etc. - you'll avoid being on island, having to debug code alone because even if the other person is working on something else, they can come alongside at any moment and help because they have context for where you may be stuck.
