This idea was around last year, too. It was called the "GM-CIA". It was not the organized because of the short notice that most people had to take part in it...but it worked efficiently and well. Only those who helped out the GM-CIA were allowed to use the information gathered (if I remember correctly...Nate: this is your chance to correct me

).
I would like to see it again this year...but I have a feeling that it won't be all that necessary.
Many teams will most likely type up a sheet of what their robot can do (advertising...sort of...no Anton, none of that "Will Strip for Alliances" stuff you did last year) and then photocopy it and pass it out to all the teams at the regionals (the ones the teams go to), and then to those in their own division at the Nationals. I say "many" because it seems like a sensible thing to do.
