I believe that, with this system, those that need the experiance the most (rookies) will be given the least amount of help.
Lets face it, the veteran teams that they want are the teams with already established software teams and this will give them a head start as to the nuances of the controller.
Don't get me wrong, I understand why they are asking for beta testers. I just wish that they wouldn't favor the teams that already have enough advantages.
As usual, this is JMHO.

I believe you made a big assumption about most veteran teams. For example, if we get picked, we will work as hard as possible to bring teams into our workshop to get as much of the same experience as we are getting. Don't assume things about other teams please.
