Re: 2013 Lessons Learned: The Positive

-Best game I've played as a FIRSTer.
-Frank has been fantastic all season and seems to be genuinely interested in keeping the teams involved in the direction FIRST goes.
-The Digital Media award is a great step towards recognizing a teams online presence. I'm looking forward to seeing that improved and expanded for next year.
-The Ri3D guys, and the TwentyFour blog I think really deserve a lot of credit for helping boost the level of competition this year. Stressing the importance of setting simple and achievable goals seems to have sunk in with a lot of teams.
-The amount of media being produced by teams seemed to jump this year in both quantity and quality. Team 3313 is a great example of a team that really embraced the idea of documenting and sharing their season online.
-The Michigan State Championship broadcast was incredibly good. This needs to continue (and i'm sure it will) and it serves as a great example of how to broadcast FIRST events in the future.
-The Orlando RPC deserves a shout out for trying new things this year and being open to experimentation. FIRST RoboVision was an invaluable service for teams both scouting and reviewing matches after the day was over (check out the Channel here) and the committee really gave The RoboShow a ton of support and were willing to take a chance on both projects because they want to keep innovating and improving their event.

That's all I have for now, overall a fantastic season that has made me very excited and optimistic for FIRSTs future.
