I apologize for the misinformation I was provided with.

Please read G41, quoted below for your convenience.

Thank you, but the matter still stand of the missing point. It's in the past now regardless.

I will not sit by idly as you run down my character and accuse me of affecting the results of this or any other FRC event. This is simply not the case.

I sorry that I have to bring this up, but you yelled at a girl on our team until she was in tears last regional. Excuse me for saying this, but it's left me personally with a somewhat tarnished image of your moral character in my mind.

Ironic, since the person you're slandering (me) was the Chairman of the planning committee...

Credit where credit is due, what can I say--it was a wonderful event to be a part of, ran on time (and ahead of time!), and all I can do is appreciate your organizational skills and general command over the event. We all had an fantastic time and this is a great new venue for FIRST.

I'm speechless and stunned by actions of some people this weekend, and others in this thread. This isn't the FIRST I've dedicated my last 15 years to.

Don't let it all get to you; as with everything in life, you've got to roll with the punches. We've all been there in one way or another.

//Edit: I apologize for ending a sentence with a preposition. I'm too disenchanted at the moment to fix it.

Apology noted.


The long and short of it goes like this: yes, it's tiring that you guys clean up wherever you go, and yes, it's fantastic to see the top teams bleed, but your team inspires many more to be better and drives their want to one-up you. Take that away from this thread, more than anything, with pride.
