I think Recycle Rush added some positive elements that can be included in FRC games in 2-4 years, but on the whole it sort of came together into a pretty smelly mess. We don't have any interest in offseason competitions this year, that's for sure.

I still find it totally bizarre that between 2010-2014 you have 5 years of games to draw from. Each game has different elements and pros and cons lists that can draw from each other. I think between 2010, 2012, and 2014 (2013 is just 2012b) alone you have ingredients and themes of game design you can take and make a really really great game. Instead they threw out everything but the field perimeter and the robot weight limit. Seriously, everything else got tossed.

I like that it put us on our toes and there are some things in RR that can be used later, but I don't want to see Recycle Rush get the Rebound Rumble --> Ultimate Ascent treatment.
