Re: What went right?
This year's game seemed less brutal to me. I am a volunteer and I didn't pick up any parts on the field. Last year, I couldn't pick up the poof balls because I was busy picking up all the spare robot pieces.
This year's game embraced teamwork unlike any other.
Teamwork is very valuable every year, I know, but this year seemed different to me. At VCU, I saw the teams work together like never before. I was impressed. The teams that worked together the best won easily.
The game is very easy to score and tally up all the points. The referees seemed to enjoy it, being that there weren't as many penalties as last year and all.
The field set up was very easy to put back in place. Last year, it took a while with all those balls and the robots that still had balls stuck inside them.
This game wasn't as entertaining as last year, but I don't feel as if it's about entertainment. I think the importance of this year's game is the message it sent out to teams and the lessons learned.
