Re: What Is the best FIRST state.

To say that teams in the north have sponsor built bots is a bit absurd, Look at teams like 121 and 69 Those bots are not sponsor built and yet both perform very well annually

Of course it is Georgia. You wanna know why, we host the Nationals. Yeah, and we are growing at a steady pace. New is good. First is relatively new in Georgia. So Georgia is the best.

Re: What Is the best FIRST state.

<offtopic> Everyone referring to the sponsor-built issue, before this gets way too heated...

FIRST is about learning. A robot can be mainly sponsor-/engineer-built, but as long as you have students learning how or why something works, you are meeting the goals of FIRST. Therefore, it's unfair to infer anything or categorize robots in a negative light just because they may have more adult input than others. They're like any other robot out there.

Everyone breathe, think happy thoughts, let friendly debate re-commence :p </offtopic>

I still stand by my statement that I think there are no "best" states, though.

you also forgot MICHIGAN (capital for infancies) has two Chairman Award winners :D
