Point conceded. It is not solely HQs fault.
I'm even willing to concede that its probably not a sign of ill will.
I still think its one of the worst possible options, and having it happen two years in a row is even less acceptable.
I'll admit I'm ignorant of the AP testing problem -- we don't have such a thing in Canada. Our Grade 10 Literacy Test frequently collides with FRC events, and we work around it.
Surely VEX and HQ can work together to prevent this from becoming an annual problem though... Any reason VEX worlds couldn't be run on the week after FRC's week 7?
