The encryption is, shall we say, secure, and I would hope that no one in FIRST makes any serious effort to get around it. Its to prevent the entire FIRST community from overloading FIRST's servers in the minutes following kickoff.

Just because you said that, people WILL try to break it. It's the Internet, dude.

This is FIRST. We teach Gracious Professionalism. Neither part of GP supports hacking the encryption. Unless, of course, you're a CIA decrypter and are trying to break a terrorist's code or something like that.

Its also FIRST. And as we're constantly reminded, this is not about robots, but people.

Hiding in your basement, working to decrypt something a few days early, missing out on sleep more than is typical in FIRST, and missing out on people, only to gain information that might help build a superior robot helps the robot, not people. Engaging in a collective thought of "Oh..My..God..DAVE, WE'RE SUPPOSED TO DO WHAT AGAIN" with your team, and FIRSTers around the world, while on the same build schedule as everyone else helps people.

And it wouldn't make any grandmother I know proud.

Oh god... here we go again.

Can't we have a year off from this madness? We never come anywhere near to what the game is...can't we just forget it and wait until kickoff?

OK just to clarify, i'm a rookie and i was just wondering why they release it early. I have no intentions to crack it or anything like that. I don't even know how that's possible if i wanted to.

Why are we so worried about this? We do not need GP from the teams to keep the manual safe from being viewed early. Have you seen the size of the key? I would argue that it is simply impossible with our current technology for anyone to crack this key in 3 days.

BTW - using any Lavery clue to figure anything out could be equally impossible.
