Frustrated in Alabama
Ok, I'm just going to spit it out although I know I'm gonna get hate mail. I've been at it for five years now and can't find any logic what-so-ever to this award and you know how we engineers cave without logic. I'm frustrated with it because it consumes a lot of resources on our small scale team and the chances of winning are low (kind of like winning the lottery). I personally believe that the 'bot' building does more to impress our students. I know FIRST puts priority on this award over every other award but I'm not buying into it anymore. I think the final decision is based on some sort of random number generator. Sorry, I love FIRST, but not this part.
