Re: [FRCTop25.com]- Premiere Night!

If I may make a few suggestions for next year, I would like to suggest:

-Allow all submissions as you did this year; it's great for lesser known teams to be able to be shown to the whole community like this was.

-Keep random order with a couple superpowers at the end. The format was great for letting us see robots of teams we wouldn't have normally recognized by dangling the really good ones randomly. It was also pretty exciting wondering when our video would get pulled.

-Cap video length at 2 minutes. As amazing as the robots were, it gets rather fatiguing to watch video after video. The long videos got, honestly, boring and weren't fair to those who ended up being pushed back to very late at night.

-Define exactly what you want in a reveal video; keep build season footage to a minimum.

-Start earlier. We had a viewing party for it and had to miss the best of them because everyone's parents wanted them home by midnight.

Overall an excellent event and one you guys should absolutely do next year. FIRST should make a Release Video competition judged on videography and actually give a legitimate award for it.
