Re: PNW robotics teams, what'd you think of the district model?

It was not a significant problem, more of a minor nuisance. As I understand it, this is only a PNW rule, correct? I have never heard of Michigan, MAR or NE implementing it. All Districts hold events in small venues, does the PNW just install fewer circuits in their high school gyms than other parts of the country?

With 4 batteries, 2 chargers, and the short district turn-arounds, we could not put a fully charged battery of our own in our robot every match. Luckily everyone else was smarter than us and had extra batteries.
