I think a regional animation award is a bad idea because it will cause many great entires to be overlooked. For instance, if our team went to a regional with the future grand prive winner, we would certainly lose at the regional. Our entry would then be automatically eliminated for nationals when it still could have a good chance for honorable mention. This same issue exists for chairman's. At least our team has the privelage of knowing we lost to the national chairman's recipient at our regional this year. I think FIRST needs to reevaluate how they judge and organize submissions.
