I am not a fan of the fixed time either. I had the pleasure of FTAAing two off-seasons. Some matches we were able to start very quickly others took a very long time. Sometimes the problems are with the field, sometimes with the robot, sometimes there are just problems. In a perfect world this would work however it would make the field staff's lives more stressful (in my opinion at least). If there are problems with a robot connecting everyone is trying to get it working as quickly as possible, if the problem can't be fixed, the match will be started, if it can be fixed it will be done in a timely way, giving the teams and field staff a timer to when they have to start the match just stresses everyone out more, not a good idea in my opinion.

My $0.02, make what you will of it.
