: I totally agree with Raul on this subject but I feel I need to (once again!) toss in my thoughts.
: Of course you are welcome to say FIRST is 'cooler' but please don't draw comparisons (like 'better') between the robots or competitions because:
: A) the competitions are different
: B) you probably don't know enough about the BB robots and the motivations of their creators
: As I said before, don't confuse more constraints as more challenging because it's the exact opposite. The difficulty of a design problem is proportional to the number of design possibilities that need to be considered. Less constraints means more possibilities means more difficulty.
: Dan

I guess stigma wasn't exactly the smartest thing to say.

I agreee with all of your reply comments

Thanks for the insight!
