Mainstream games...like Water Polo!

Actually, you need more research to make an accurate call on this. The success of a game the GDC creates does not depend on how much the entire FIRST body likes the game. Obviously part of the goal of the GDC is to design a game that everyone will like, take seriously, learn from and be inventive with. But the success or failure of a game does not depend on if the game was based on a sport.

I loved Lunacy. I even asked on these forums before Lunacy came out to change the floor of the traditional FRC field. I loved Lunacy because it was difficult to build for. It brought about questions to be answered that FIRST teams hadn't needed to ask themselves ever. That made Lunacy a success - the lessons learned.

I'd take a learning experience over an enjoyable experience any day.
