Totally get it. Right now, MI is sitting somewhere around the 190's, however our total number when all said and done should be closer to 400.

My team is not attending our home event. For us, it is because of a couple of factors:
1) the pits were really dim (we needed to use work lights to see well inside the robot).
2) the event tends to be one of the most difficult districts in the state. As a younger team, that makes it harder to qualify for MSC.
3) the bleachers are open underneath, so it's easy to drop items down into the void.
4) there's many other events within comfortable driving distance that we like better.
