I can totally understand your frustration! Althought the 2016 pits at world were pretty nice I thought the competition fields area were very small especially in comparison to FRC. Also has a huge food lover I was a little bit sad thaatn tt none of the union station resturants were open. FTC often gets the short end of the stick. I somewhat disagree with you on the FIRST favoring FLL thing however. I think the event scale goes in progression order. Starting with FRC with the best and FLL Jr. at the worst. I feel as though this gap would be much more appropriate if FTC had more of an age gap from FRC. The majority of FTC teams at world's were high school teams just like all of the FRC teams. This makes the difference seem more unfair as kids of your own age and probably in my opinion the same amount of dedication as the upper level counterparts get considerably better treatment and favorability among the FIRST community. In all honesty I think the 2 world championship system coming next year will definetly shed a little bit more attention on to FTC. You should be very proud that you guys made it to world championships. That is a HUGE acomplishment! Congratulations!
