No offense to those of you on rookie teams, but you don't need to go to the nationals. Enjoy your regional. Get a feel for how the competition works. And if you manage to do well one year, then you'll get to compete against everyone else the next year. Amy Ross

I agree with you 100%.

When clueless/inexperianced teams lower the scores of good machines, everyone loses.

Now, is FIRST about teaching/inspiring people about technology??

Or is it about making everyone "feel good"?

We don't want FIRST to become like Public Schools, do we? Its a COMPETITION, meaning that good machines should be rewarded, and those that dont do as well should strive to do better next year.

(Whoa, Im going to make people upset with this one)
