: Maybe next year FIRST could add one day to the time between kickoff and shipping. We could all promise to use that only for practice day!

Do you really think that if we were given another day for practice only teams would use it for practice? I know that a lot of teams are always staying up rather late come close to shipping finishing building the robot. I know that some teams get done early enough to get their practice time in, but most teams don't. I think that extra day would go more towards finishing the robot as opposed to practicing driving it.
