Yes, very true. But I would say that there are other at least reasonable acceptable sites in the NYC regional. But if say only one team voted - they would be forced to vote against their own interest. Also, I think that FIRSt Judges should have the ultimate say. I'm sure there are some great outstanding professionals who would love to judge websites. I find it highly ironic that an organization For the Inspiration of Science and Technology refuses to really recognize, take seriously, or put major effort into recognizing or promoting a form of computer technology. In many cases, teams put more work into their web sites than their robots! Certainly the student ballot system was the path of least resistance from FIRST's standpoint, but was clearly a terrible solution.
