Calibration issues

I have preformed the calibration on my activity bot using blockleyprop. After that when I ran the program to get the calibration results, my terminal was blank. It does not show if the calibration was successful or if there are problems. When I tried to run the project to make the bot go straight forward for 3 feet it just went backwards in a circle. What have I done wrong?

Sure, we can help resolve these problems with calibration.
Can you confirm that you've done this step http://learn.parallax.com/tutorials/robot/activitybot/blocklyprop-robotics-activitybot/navigation-basics/test-encoder first?

It sounds like your calibration routine did not fully complete.
Please run it again, and be absolutely sure not to turn the robot off until the P26/P27 lights turn off. Turning it off early will result in behaviour like you are seeing.
Your name gets my blood boiling! (I am an LSU grad!) ;-) Just kidding!
Welcome! Did you get it working?
