Frank has already talked about setting up some Community Awards for the upcoming season...which happens to be this one, and the first of those awards was supposed to be for the animation award.
I think that if there could be more topics and more interest for those topics in these Community Awards, then maybe this idea will take off better. With teams getting more creative with their videos, and the interest in this thread already, there is potential to make a good Robot-Related Video and Non-Robot Video Community Award, as well as awards for Chairman's. There are a lot of potential Community Awards waiting to happen, it just needs the right interest shown to get it started. The downside could be the possibility of
FIRST adding in some sort of regulation to Videos, such as no music used without proper permission and correct uses of the
FIRST logo.
Also, maybe, possibly, the award given to each of the winners of these community awards could officially be named The Plowie, but it may have to go though a number of approvals. haha
