Lightbulb Re: YMTC: Redateam Uncrates Redabot on Wednesday

Scott : What the team did is technically illegal and they should be made to uncrate Thursday instead.

The Devil's Advocate : There are many robots that arrived fully assembled and must simply be rolled out of their crates. However, some (like Redabot) require a lengthy assembly, which gives them less time to work on other projects and repairs (like that bent axle of theirs) and puts them at a disadvantage, which is not their fault. It is FIRST's intention to speed up the uncrating process, not limit team's time in the pits. It this fair to teams that require assembly? I think not.
