Re: POLL: Worst FRC game
I didn't vote because I couldn't use the term "worst". I've enjoyed every FRC season that I've been part of whether as a teacher, mentor or volunteer.

But in the criteria of things that maybe didn't work out so well, I'd have to say that arranging alliances by team number in 2007 didn't really work out as hoped. Throw in a bit of a KoP gearbox problem (not the fault of the game, per se, but it certainly had an impact on our team) and there were a few memorable low points that year.

Aside from that it was a good game. And I enjoyed the season, and actually got some really good stories to tell because of the alliance pairing algorithm.

I've had the opportunity to be involved in designing a few game like challenges for students. The GDC does a pretty awesome job of it. It's not always perfect, but it has never been bad.
