Re: Week 1 Analysis

I'll first say that I empathize with the hard working volunteers and respect the work done by the FIRST organization to design all of the aspects of this game.

That said, I am pretty concerned about the pedestals not lighting, the assists not being awarded, and the excessive human player penalties. This game has a lot of potential, so I really hope those three major issues are addressed somehow.

Any alliance that gets eliminated this afternoon due to incorrect scoring after having clearly won on the field is going to be pretty crestfallen. It's a bit like scoring a touchdown, kicking the extra point, and kicking off to the other team, then receiving only four points put on the scoreboard. The scoring is certainly more complex than football, but when teams don't receive the correct points for their actions, the level of unfairness is the same in Aerial Assist as it is in football.
