I agree completely with you. I believe that most things that make First and the competitions fun is the fact that the students get to actually drive the robot. I personally disagree with having an autonomous mode...for the simple fact that it takes away from the preticipation of the students. It is alot more work and effort to do and less benifits for the team itself. If your programming goes bad, as it tends to do sometimes, or you are off by one tenth of an inch in calculations...you're a sitting duck during this time of the game. I honestly think that although it makes you think more it also takes from the game itself because of it.

What does everyone else think?
