Re: FIRST Ribbons?
I personally like the idea of ribbons; it makes it easier for every person on the team to have their own "mini" award. The only problems I see are standardizing the ribbons, such as color, size, whatever with FIRST and the teams, figuring a way to label them (I think this is a must) with year and event, and events could be labeled with the letter-code first uses [GL MI GAL CMP etc...], and distributing to events so that all members on a team recieve one, and there aren't too many extra to leave lying in a closet.
One though I had for the whole distribution thing is to have the ribbons made after competitions, with the team giving a desired number or so... but then this leads to the figuring out costs part, which is confusing for me right now.
Also, along with standardization of the colors, I think division colors would need to be standardized also. I looked around for the division years 01 through 04 and found that divisions almost always switched colors every year. Any scheme would work, I personally like this year's colors. It'll boil down to 3 base colors: red, white and blue, and then one "oddball"... gold, black, green, whatever it ends up.
That's just my complicated thoughts on this idea.
