Unhappy Re: Why does everyone hate this game so much?

I dislike this game for two simple reasons.

A single game piece which causes animosity between what should be alliance members. Teams are justified in wanting to play the game with the robots they spent $4000 on and many many evenings working on. Half the teams out there are having to not play offense for fear of losing the game. Now they cant even play defense for fear of incurring penalties.

The other reason is the number of subjective penalties in this game and how punishing they are. On the score and the overworked refs. Good luck getting the volunteers to want to ref again when the refs go through the emotional ringer after every match.

FIRST,I know it is about inspiration and not the robots but you cant do away with the game and robots completely and expect to keep growing. Its like we got an entire new GDC that has never played a game before especially after the complete success of the last few years. What happened?
