Re: best color ID system

While I like the idea of the flags, they have had their own problems in this year's game. Especially at the Wisconsin Regional, these flags would go flying out of the PVC holders and, as Al Skierkewicz mentioned earlier, one even managed to be shot into the goal of an opposing alliance. My personal beef is that I had trouble seeing them. Call me blind, but when flags are all bunched around their poles and they are wobbling in every direction and you have a bunch of robots in a cluster playing defense, it is hard to discern which flag goes down to which team's robot.

I found myself searching for the LEDs more often than not.
