Re: Longest droughts in FIRST history

Is winning an award such an important thing? Why can't members of a team just be happy with putting engineering to the test, and every year pumping out a highly sophisticated robot in six weeks?

Sure, awards are nice to shove in the display case, but the point of FIRST is to enjoy yourself. Not every team can win a regional or an award, but everybody can certainly have fun and be proud of the work they've done.
