While it is very easy to beat on FIRST for their indifference to the animation competition (and I'm one of it's biggest critics) it must be said that this is a step in the right direction. Now we have to encourage FIRST to take more steps to make it better.
If you look at the early FIRST competitions it is light years from what it is now. There is no reason why the animation cannot become that as well but it is up to us to keep the pressure on FIRST to make the improvements so they don't just think they've dine enough and the animation competition is OK the way it is now. Keep voicing your opinions and also give suggestions on how to improve the competition so FIRST can see that it is a possibility.
We devserve this, because we work just as hard as any of the kids and engineers who work on the robot.
