Re: Is competing at multiple regionals REALLY fair ?

What I mean by that is something that FIRST has obviously thought about in qualifying by adding match points. A regional isn't all about going out there and blowing other teams out of the water; it is about going out there and seeing who has the better robot. All I'm saying by that is I would like to see teams pair up to make the playoffs more of an unknown. The fact that right after alliance selection, at the regionals that we have attended, I could tell you who was in the finals and be right 2/3 times, tells you something. I have only been around FRC for 2 years, so it isn't like I have watched these teams a ton.

Is it better to go in knowing that you are going to win or being evenly match with your oponent?
