Re: GDC you have failed us.

Just because a rookie team is a rookie to FRC, doesn't mean they may not know what to do. As stated by Billfred, a good amount of first-year teams have done very well.

A sigh of relief went through the room as we heard that these KOP wheels were mandatory. Everybody knows that this will "level the playing field", even if not completely.

In my honest opinion, a few of the previous games weren't really all that "difficult" to everybody. Sure, some teams had the time, resources, or creativity to do very well in the competition. But just because you were in the program since 1998 (I know it started in '92) doesn't mean that you're automatically a powerhouse team.

I agree with whomever stated that this time would be better spent developing a solution instead of complaining about the problem.
