On my way back from the kickoff today, a friend and I were talking about the new aspects of this competition. One of the biggest changed (in the three years I have been in FIRST) is the addition of the third robot to each team. This is going to make knowing who you are A) up against and B) working with all that much more important. In the past there have been teams who have started their own robot databases, going around to each team with a laptop and filling out a chart (or what have you).
This got me thinking: Why not have a
wiki-style database of robots, strategies and so on?
Has this already been done? Would people like to see it done? Would people be interested in helping it get done?
