Re: Can first go this year without changing a rule

i have no problems with first changing rules, i would be shocked if they didn't. when they do a game design they try and think of all the options and situations that might come up and how they play out but when it comes down to it there are more of us then there are of them and so the game develops as build goes on thus causing the necessary rule changes/clarifications.


Personally i consider it a more reasonable request for FIRST to enforce rules, over the past few years i have witnessed teams breaking rules deliberately and FIRST does nothing. I don't want to state any specific examples to single teams out but instances happen, and i know that teams should practice GP and most do but i would love to see FIRST put an iron fist down once in a while and enforce a rule they create.
