Re: 2013 Lessons Learned: The Positive

I was impressed how a lot of teams were put on the same level. Powerhouse teams were not automatically winning everything and non-powerhouse teams seemed to have a chance.

Frank's blog was very helpful this year and all he did was superb.

Have to give props to the Wisconsin Regional, you spoil all of us with such an amazing regional. Please keep up the good work!

Getting rid of the Kinect control station area from last year, I feel, was an improvement.

The volunteer shirt color at championships stood out more, so they were easier to find (even if it made the Thunder Chickens much more difficult to isolate ;] ).

Strategy was incredibly important in this year's game. Brute force and a stagnant strategy couldn't cut it like it would be able to in some games, and it was clearly evident from one match to the next how effective a change in strategy was.

Overall, the procedure of taking down the 30 point climbers was executed incredibly well, and after the first week or so did not greatly impact match cycle times nearly as much as I anticipated it would.

The shortened kickoff, though some may complain was too short, was definitely appreciated by new/freshmen members who typically get lost in it as they have not yet been immersed in our FIRST culture.
