The Honor Code of FIRST
After talking about the honor code that FIRST heavily relies upon, I have had many questions as to if and how anyone really cares to enforce it. What do you think of the 'Honor Code' and how effective do you think it is? Do you think there should be more 'checks' or 'written rules' that would leave less up to teams and the honor code? What are other ways to combat some of the loop-holes (if any) around the honor code to make sure the playing field is level for every team? Discuss.

EDIT: What I mean by honor code is the code that we are trusting teams to stay within their boundaries of the rules and nobody is really checking up on them about going over their fix-it window times , using parts that were made out of official ours, parts from previous seasons, bringing more than 25 lbs to competitions and things along those lines.
