Perhaps the limiting of the use of tools in creating the Chairman's Award is a challange to the creator artistically to use the tool in a unique way. Word is not as limited as you think and the most creative minds will see that and put it to use. Complaining about the challange only sets up a barrier to the goal of success before you have even tried to achieve that success. FIRST loves to throw down the gauntlet and challange teams to creatively solve problems and this is just another challange to make the most out of a little. Perhaps they want to see just how resourceful your team truly is. Don't knock it til you've tried it.
