Re: A simple and easy way to make RR the best game yet...

I was thoroughly wrong about a lot of things this year, too. I thought that FIRST wanted FRC to be more like a sport, but Recycle Rush proves that I was way off base. I don't think the game will prove to be boring for either teams to build and play, or for audiences to watch, and I don't think the GDC are stupid, but this game is requiring a large shift in my expectations and way of thinking.

Regarding the sizes of robots, I am super curious as to what might happen. Will we see something of the caliber of 71 from 2002? Or 469 from 2010? I'd love to know what Magnets is predicting, but I doubt he will say yet.
