There was a lot of discussion about the problems that FIRST had with the Field/Real Time Scoring/Team Ranking System last week. See
this thread for what problems folks had and what FIRST (or at least
Dave Lavery &
Jason Morrella*) has said about it.
I don't want this thread to get into a re-hash of last week. I really would like it to be an opportunity for us to discuss what is working and (if we have to and can do it respectfully) what is not working.
So... ...share with us what you know.
Personally, I would really like to hear from folks who worked behind the scenes last week and are doing it again this week. Tell us the straight scoop.
Also, (again for me personally) I am interested in the view of participants and especially the view from the stands by those who are non-FIRST fanatics but just folks who are coming to see the show (and perhaps support their kids).
If we can all play nice, we can keep this thread out of the Moderated Forum.
Let's hear what you've got to say.

*Jason Morrella <- notice 2 R's & 2 L's Jason is too nice of guy to say anything, but we ought to TRY to spell his name right shouldn't we?
