Re: Update 20 Released

I think that the number of feild attendants we have need to be more cautious and aware of what is going on around them. At chicago during the whole comp. one auto load volunteer repetedly was being smaked by the ref because he would never replace another tetra onto the loader. he would finally get the tetra on the loader when the robot had been there for a few seconds. I really don't think that the extra lexan sheets above the driver's stations are necessay because of the fact that the drivers should be good at driving if they aren't they should not be driving the robot. So really the robot should never be dangling a tetra above the player station unless being acted upon by force. I also remeber a certain finals match that isn't supposed to exist that did happen at the chicago regionals where multiple robots should have been shutdown but were not and after the match the round was well forgotten about because the refs did not shut the robots down when they needed to and they realized it after the match was over. anyways I hope that everyone will be alot more cautious at nationals.
