I see that my hunch, and Rick's, about the style of future FTC games generated some pretty strong reactions.

Let me remind you that my crystal ball is very cloudy.

Do not over-react to hunches about how the tone of the games might change a bit.

Also, when I think about challenges to work into FTC games I often think about problems like building towers, or turning knobs, or punching numbers into a keypad, or about doing other tasks that would not involve a whole lot of bumping or pushing/shoving. Introducing a little bit of non-contact sports into the challenges might be a good thing.
