Re: paper: FAQs Regarding the FRC District Competition System
Nothing that hasn't been said yet, but huge thanks for posting this. A massive amount of respect for all that you've done and continue to do with FIRST and FiM.
I absolutely love the district model, and every possible short-coming that I have identified about the model in the past few years (cost, state isolation, bag'n'tag) has just been explained here. Extremely useful document. Will be sharing with the rest of my team.
As a side note, if it's not being used to fund the FiM FRC competitions themselves, I'd really like to see where all our entry fee money is going to. For a school district with more than 68% of it's students on free/reduced lunch, and local industry in shambles/survival mode, it isn't easy to procure the needed funds to exist. We'd be more than happy to take a cut in the required funds needed department.
