week 1: Three Things I've Learned
I attended the Midwest Regional this year and I can say that I was not surprised by the results. I am, however, surprised by three things:
  1. The game is VERY boring and anti-climatic.
  2. The matches are determined by penalties more often than not.
  3. A team can get selected because of their reputation to build amazing robots in the past. (Someone from 16 or 1625, please explain to me why you selected us [648]? I'm grateful that you did, but it's perplexing.)


Any comments, concerns? Agree or disagree so far?

I hope that something is done to make this game more exciting, as right now I believe it's the worst yet. Can't wait for IRI and their rule changes.

Also, this was a very bad game to introduce new spectators into, too much going on in any given area.

BTW - Congrats to all of the participants of the Midwest Regional, it was stellar event yet again. And too all of those that dared enough to compete in first week regionals.
