After being at a regional, I have to modify my remarks. The game was fully accessible to spectators. Sure, you had to explain the oddball scoring, but has there been an FRC game (at least recently) where you didn't? It was obvious that people were watching matches on the edge of their seat, even those whose team was not on the field. Every tall stack formed, and every item dropped, drew cheers or gasps from all over the audience. I believe also that this game has inspired more complete overhauls and total redesigns after stop build day than any other. Hearing the audience reaction to the "mosquito netting" noodle defense in Bayou Semi #2 was priceless, even though it proved of little value.
