[dez250]

hey everyone as a volunteer at nationals i have a point of view you all may like to read. It was a hectic weekend on Friday and Saturday as i was volunteering on the Archimedes field, nto due to the matches more or less but much of due to the bins. During the matches, the bins would brake and shatter and crack, many were able to be saved and reused again, but if you saw between the newton and curie fields i think was a bin curtained off area in there we had a bin station. we would make 100's at a time with the rivets and stickers and Human Player tape and it was long. Aty points in thew days fields were behind schedule due to the bins needing to be replaced after matches and not all ways having an adequite supply at the field. This FIRST prob will still use the boxes or at least a bin with the same demensions to save you from getting new ones but i did hear them talking about trying to find "indestructable" ones that could brake but not as easy as this years. As a volunteer and a student on team 250 i know that the bins have made an interesting game but it also made a hard time for everyone. so dont be surprised if we have a game that involves the bins again but it could also involve past items like balls too... Now what about that!
