Parks is an unknown quantity at this point
since people have mentioned all the damage, I felt like commenting. Some people dislike this game because it is too intense. The way I look at it, it forces the teams to create a robot that can not only do a task and do it well, but also stand up to the abuse of use. This, I believe, has a really good real world application to it. It forces teams to consider the entire design process, and not just finish when the robot is built. I feel that this game, more than others, brings forth the true meaning and practices of engineering.

This is also why I had such an awesome time at the regional. I can't wait until Houston.
