Re: FIRST Wish List
I've said it before, I'll say it again: a game scored in real-time, as opposed to once the field comes to rest. The technology is out there, and it means you'll have N robots out there looking to deliver their payloads fast and often, putting an emphasis on reliability.
Additionally, I'd like to see FIRST matches upped to three minutes next season. It'll decrease matches, yes, but not as much as one might think (as you've got fewer inter-match periods for field reset, introductions, load-in/out, etc.) And after this season's mad hustle (and anyone who was on a drive team knows what I'm talking about), I think it'll do a world of good.
