Re: Problem's with 2015…

Sorry, I beg to differ on the game play. I will do one caveat that I'm not going to events to watch. But I am watching on home on the streams and the matches that are posted.

I'm finding that I need to watch the match twice to see what the Red does then watch for the Blue. Because they are playing on different ends of the field it's hard to watch both alliances at the same time. There are lots of good interactions (and teamwork) when the alliance is working together. And there is lots of crash time when they are not.

This is a game that really requires alliances to communicate, figure out a game plan and execute that plan.

I think the stack building an the placement of the stacks is cook, love watching the RC wobble around the top. Will it fall or not?

I get the part about a factory, but in this case it's not a finely tuned factory. As a kid we did the General Foods tour in Dover when they bottled syrup there. Always fun to see one bottle get stuck and another come an smash and now there is sticky goo.

It beats watching a robot lock into a fill station and fling frisbee after frisbee into the goal.
