Part of FIRST is about progression, and if the system is found lacking and is changed, it just benefits the entire FIRST community as a whole and shouldn't be cause for complaint. Yeah, anyone would be a little miffed, but hey, you can't please everyone...

But yes, there should definately be a real clock somewhere on the big screen at least.
