Re: How do you describe FIRST?

I hate being asked this question every time I recruit for robotics. Over half the people at our club day at school first asked either a) what weapons does it have or b) where are the weapons. And I get to the point where I can't stand it. And then after I explain the game to some, they're like, "what's the fun in that, just strap a chainsaw on the back and that would be cool." So then I end up just frustraited. And then sometimes people will ask me how much goes into this, and I explain the long hours and money spent on it ("Hah, I coulda built one better in two days and three hundred dollars, and it would have a chainsaw.
