Re: why doesn't FIRST have 3rd place?
For the same reason that NCAA basketball doesn't do a "third" place game anymore in the Final Four. What is the point?
There really isn't time and it would take away from the excitement of the Finals to have other robots that have already lost competing.
That time belongs to the finalists...
I have never understood the fascination with knowing who came in third and fourth.... what's next ...play offs for 5th and sixth... and 7th and 8th?
The system is pretty good just the way it is... you are either winner, finalist, semifinalist or quarterfinalist....
