Re: 3 Year FRC Cycle? - The CON's
I've seen it mentioned briefly already, but I want to reiterate it...
The only way this would possibly be accepted by the current FIRST community is if the game was modified each year. Maybe the relative obstacles stay the same and its a different game piece, or maybe the game pieces stay the same with different obstacles. Basically, it would allow you to use a skeleton of a robot for all 3 years and then just tweak year to year.
I'm still totally against it, but if it were simply the same game for 3 consecutive years, I'd imagine by year 3 we would see nothing but an army of whatever robot 1114 came up with in year 1.
