It was meant to sound ominous. The poll asks if your team would do something blatantly against the core values of FIRST. Even if it is your opinion, it reflects on your team.

This wasn't aimed at any single person or team and I haven't made any assumptions based on the poll results. However, sometimes people (especially students) need a reminder that what they say in a public place is just that: public. Yes, the math behind the theoretical question of how long it would take to crack is interesting, but the OP was clearly (using a brand new, anonymous account) attempting to split the cracking efforts.

That being said, if I recognized that one of my team's students had answered yes, we'd be having a talk about why they think cracking the game manual is acceptable.
