My post was more of a joke. I'm hoping we'll find the case to be an isolated incident with the Einstein field, and that the field used at most off season events will be more than able to put on the matches we'd expect to see at IRI. If the weekend's diagnostics from FIRST goes well, I'm sure we won't see a problem going into IRI. If they don't provide any conclusive results... Well, that's a problem.
But I'm optimistic that field problems will be resolved going into IRI (even if I have no reason to be optimistic). And I wouldn't be surprised if some FIRST personnel are on-hand at IRI, just in case. I'm sure FIRST is at least a little embarrassed about what happened on Einstein, and, even if IRI isn't an official FIRST sanctioned event, will want everything to be perfect at the biggest off-season event of the year as sort of a redemption.
