Re: [FRCTop25.com]- 2014 Premiere Night

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the wording is complete mechanisms and complete robots are not allowed to be shown. Documenting prototypes with video would then be perfectly fine because they aren't completed mechanisms. Thus, much of Spectrum's build blog would be perfectly legal-- only the videos of testing finalized mechanisms and pictures of the powdercoated frame would not be allowed.

All in all, I think that's a perfectly fine compromise-- if you're showing off your completed robot or completed shooter before the reveal, you aren't actually revealing anything as the entire surprise is spoiled already.

I'll try to get the budding videographers on my team interested in this-- it sounds like it'll be an awesome event again this year!
