Here's one for you-
We submitted our entry on about Jan 10th so it would be one less thing to do in the middle of the building season. At the time there was a rules clarification posted on the FRC Forum that clearly stated that the submission was to be 4 pages, one of which was the Executive Summary Page and that "entries in excess of 4 pages would not be considered".
As a result of this FRC clarification we removed our graphics and essentially rewrote the entry so it would follow the rules.
Now, in response to reading this Delphi post, I look back at the FRC Forum and the original rules clarification is no longer there while there are several stating that the entry is 4 pages IN ADDITION to the Executive Summary. I am absolutely certain that I did not misread the original posting because I had several people read it to confirm it.
So essentially, in an effort to follow the rules, we cut our entry by 25% and lost all the glitz.
I hope it is enough.
Not happy.
