Re: Lessons learned 2005: The negative

Strangely enough I feel that a negative of 2005 was there wasn't enough Sir Charles at nationals :-) I really enjoy him and as it was my first year as a spectator and not on the field I really found him getting me pumped for every match and not just my matches.

I'm not going to beat a dead horse here but the penalties were crazy and I feel the the stray from defensive aspects of first was a huge mistake. Even tho as an omni bot my team greatly benefited from these rules.

My main gripe however is FIRST MUST STICK TO THE SAME RULES, I wish there is something that we could do to keep the rules the same. Maybe a petition or a mass number of emails voicing the same complaint. I believe that at this time with FIRST growing in size, expanding world wide into the middle east and Europe that these updates are unacceptable and honestly a bit unprofessional. Clarifications may and should be made, but changes are unnecessary and must be avoided. That is my main qualm with this season, I hope next year this issue will be addressed.

Overall tho I enjoyed the season :-) It was a good and exciting game.
