Now, first, remember guys, FIRST people. LOTS, read these boards. I know that the scoring system is not perfect, but when these things come up, we don't help them. They know there are problems, they know there are flaws, issues, and bugs. Remember, constructive criticism.
Also, I remember last year the software was downloaded onto antique hardware at the VCU regional, it took all day long to do it! I remember the manual ball drop, and no ranking information AT ALL. While it would be nice to have a good software program, and only one, over the years, I think that's what this Hatch program is for; an open, expandable program that allows for as many teams as is needed on the field at one time. I have a feeling that not only Hatch will control the FIRST fields, but the VEX field at Atlanta.
