All of this helps iron out bugs in rules that inevitably pop up when the game commitee's perfect game is implemented in our sadly imperfect reality. I realize building several prototype FIRST robots would be expensive and difficult, but I'm sure the idea could be adapted somehow and ex-FIRST mentors could be drafted to help.

I like this idea--although I can't really go into any significant detail, as I don't really know much about the game design process within FIRST. Perhaps having Storytime with Uncle Dave would help anyone thinking about that end of things?
