JZ,
On the USFIRST.ORG forum the question was asked...
Quote:
|
[Gabriel] If the two alliances decide before the beginning of a match how they will play the game and execute a strategy where the two alliances cooperate with each other to acheive a tie, are the two alliances violating the spirit of FIRST or the maxim of "gracious professionalism"?
|
The answer that first gave was simply...
.
I guess what I don't understand is how what you say and what FIRST says can be reconciled.
It seems to me that whatever a "Violation of the Spirit of First" actually means, FIRST considers "rigging" or "fixing" or "collusion" as discussed here to be in opposition to its "spirit.
We certainly could open another thread to discuss what the spirit of FIRST means but FIRST seems to have made it pretty clear that it does NOT mean two alliances cooperating with each other to produce an anticipated outcome.
Best,
Danimal
