OK, call me old fashioned, but im perfectly happy with the rug we have been using for the past 8 years. And here are my reasons...

1. Something tells me that building the playing field to practice on would be difficult and expensive, let lone a pain to dispose of.

2. How much can you do with a boat before it sinks. Im sorry, maybe its just lack of faith and engineering experience, but I just don't feel that we could put too much on a floating robot without it sinking (thinking on a larger scale here because im sure FIRST wants the crowd to be able to see whats goin on)

3. Waterproofing...nuf said

Though I do think that adding water to the game would create a clean slate for teams, I just think it would be too difficult to accomplish especially for rookie teams.

peace out,
Andy Grady

p.s. One thing I wouldn't mind that has something to do with fluid...Hidrolics =) Anyone with me here?
