For SVR, we made modifications to our presentation based on some of the feedback we had gotten.
Our SVR feedback form was drastically different however. Everything was in the full category, including the written submission which had an exclamation mark after it. We're still confused about that since that was the only thing we didn't change in between regionals.

We had an interesting experience with this as well. In San Antonio, the judges expressed concern that our executive summaries were bullet points that didn't give enough context to the impact. It was a critique we found curious because that is the way a number of teams try to efficiently pack their executive summaries. In Virginia, it was never mentioned negatively. When I see the exact quotes in front of me I can relay them here.
One thing the multiple submission thing has me wanting: can FIRST provide more uniform/in depth requirements for feedback and offer that feedback digitally through a typed document printed out and saved to the flash drive you submit a video with?
