I think there's really 2 debates going on here, one with the battlebots show, and one with the competition.
As for the show, and how it's presented, I totally agree that it has some major issues. Did you know that they are shifting networks? They claim that the show will have a new feel. Perhaps we as FIRST youth should send in a petition of sorts of our opinions of how things should be presented. Takers?
As for the competition, I can tell you, it is more than you would think. GP is present in the works, and there is more to each bot than meets the eye. Creativity is just as apparent as it is in FIRST.
And yes, there really is a game, it's not just "Search and Destroy"
So, I still think the competition itself is pretty good, it could get touched up a bit, and the way it's presented needs a facelift. But overall, it is a uniqe competition that inspires the mind just as FIRST does.
