Not saying that FIRST can't do it right, but I'm just sharing my experiences.
From my experience in FTC, this speaks more to the kits rather than the game. I'm sure if something similar was set up in FRC, it wouldn't be half as bad.

Where's the game hint? It should be around here somewhere...

No, but really, I feel like the veterans are getting bored, to a certain degree. It'll be interesting to find a game in which the veterans lack experience, the rookies can potentially play focused roles, and people can still easily understand what's going on.

Irregularly shaped objects seems about right on this note, as it allows teams to second guess their rollers/intakes and step back from the board.
