I think this is a great change and was well overdue. I appreciate that FIRST made this move. Divisions will feel more like a large regional and begin to hold their own meaning. |

This does mean that for most teams their chance of winning anything would be over by noon on Saturday but again at championship this isn't much of a problem. |
Re: [FRC Blog] More ‘Something New’ at the FIRST Championship
Definitely in favor of this idea. Looking forward to seeing what gets put into the timeout slots - I hope at least one of them is the Chairman's video.

Holding an awards ceremony for every division really does turn it into more of a regional (or dare I say a super-regional) kind of format. There's no downside to giving out more awards and recognition to teams. I've always wondered about about machine features and the teams who win awards during worlds but have never been able to make a connection because the award winners are likely to be outside of my division. Awesome move! |

Good move FIRST!!! With 400+ teams attending it is great to see more teams being recognized for their work!
Yes it means you might have to stick around on your division longer and possibly lose out on seats but each team needs to make their own decisions. |

This. is. awesome. Good move from FIRST.

Re: [FRC Blog] More ‘Something New’ at the FIRST Championship
First,
more robots get to make eliminations at CMPS. Next, more division awards such as EI. That is definitely moving in the right direction! My wish for next year, Crown Division CA. Then of the 4 that win, choose the overall winner on Einstein for the CCA! In the past, they had CCA runner ups. This would be a great way to bring back the runner ups again. |

FWIW, there were "Chairman's finalists" back in the late 90s / early 2000s - nice, but also frustrating for the teams involved. Take the good with the bad.
