At our team meeting tonight, I realized something that had not been brought up here yet.

What is the biggest award that FIRST gives out?

Chairmans Award.
Duh, we all know that. But how many acutally *DO* that?
From what I've heard, its only about 1/3 of the teams that enter.

It its so prestigous, why don't more people submit a entry?

Mayhaps FIRST has seen this, and is not happy.
Mayhaps FIRST looked for a solution, and found one.

If you want to go, win Chairmans or Engineering Inspiration.
You can't win if you don't try.

FIRST has seen this and they are not particularly happy about it. But beating on people is not the way to get them to do things that must be done with enthusiasm. I know that they have had discussions on this subject because I have been a part of them. Whether those discussion produce any fruit remains to be seen.
