If high goals were worth more (10 rather than 5, maybe), I think it would have led to more diversity of designs at the lower levels.
In comparison to other years, I maintain that Aerial Assist was better, but that's my personal opinion. Still, on my team at least, this was one of our best years in terms of engineering. We properly went through the design process, and built one of our best robots ever, according to mentors. Unfortunately, we lost a week and a half due to a blizzard, meaning that we had very little practice.

I would agree that this game was good, but 2014 was better. Hopefully, next year's game is as good as Stronghold and nothing at all like the awful recycle rush.
