Re: Last Years game vs. This year's Game

I'd say last year because it had a "big finish" - The race for the top. Stack Attack had the same thing too. In Triple Play, the race for the endzone just wasn't as big or exciting; it was worth relaitvely less points and it wasn't as challenging as getting up the ramp or hanging from the bar.

What was exciting about this year's game is that every robot did the manipulation and most all did it well. But last year's game had more and different kinds of manipulation which was better than all the robots doing the same thing.

I think last year there were a lot of good veteran teams that did not have good arms so this year FIRST made it so there is only one thing you have to do so you have to make a good arm. Then next year, now theat everyone knows how to make a good arm, they will hit us with multiple scoring options/game pieces again.
