Re: 2015 Lessons Learned: The Negative

I think that it was demotivating for teams that worked hard all year to find that the divisions were combined and fewer awards were given. There should have be an EI, an Control, etc.. for each division.

I was also disappointed that the game was essentially a FLL game on steroids with no interaction between field halves, no strategy or opportunity for defense, etc... I personally feel that watching this game was on par to watching paint dry.

FIRST is an extremely expensive activity and I feel that teams deserve a better game than one that seems like an afterthought or teams should have a 48 hour period after kickoff to request a refund. Maybe then the GDC will come up with a game that teams would be able compete on a various levels.
