What I mean is, we get info to and from our own team about how many each person can house before we tell other teams. Had I been told at the meeting last week that we wanted to house people, I would have cleared it with my roommates and said, yeah I can take 2 people. Then we could have informed the other schools that we can put up however many totoal, first come first serve. That way I could have had time to get my house ready and make sure it was good to go. As it was, I didn't know we were even planning on doing this until I saw the email to all the other teams. It's annoying having someone berate you when you weren't given the courtesy of prior knowledge. Like I said, I feel like it is a great idea but it should have been planned a little better on our part.
