Ah, but if you were, you'd have been inundated with MAR. Adding to Lil Lavery's response, the mAR folks literally attended every kickoff, regional, scrimmage, off-season, etc.. - Basically, every place where more than one FRC team might be found...and handed out cards telling folks what MAR was and how to join.

I fully agree, CD is not MAR's medium of choice. But is that really a failing? Seriously, like Lavery wrote...

Ah, but in FRC, as in life, sometimes there is a Push system and sometimes it's a Pull system. No disrespect intended (because you've been around long enough and I do respect you), but if you had questions you should have asked.

All that being said: I'm pointedly asking anyone to volunteer ideas for how THEY might communicate something like MAR to their area. My intent in asking is to document some good ideas for anyone who finds themselves having to do this in the future...and we should all realize that, in high-density areas, it's destiny (sorry about the pun...)
