Re: Shafted again

Look at it this way: Animations is recognized, and it's not an essential part of FIRST. The program could get along just fine without the Autodesk awards, as nice as the finished results are. Programming, however, is a required part of FIRST, and we don't have any programming-specific awards.

I'm not sure if you're justified in complaning. And beyond that, I'm not entirely sure why this is a bad thing. Animators were recognized, and there isn't any real reason to wait until Saturday afternoon to do that. Why not do it at the beginning of the day, when we have yet to be distracted by the finals or other, bigger awards?
