Hi All!
I agree with alot of what was said on this topic. Especially that competition is a good thing and it keeps people on their toes. You don't necessarilly need to beat someone down to win but I think this competition is more against time and who has the best design. That's why it seems kinda boring to some since it's no longer in the same category as a sports competition that we all know. In a capitalistic society as our's, competition in the market is in tune to similarities to Darwinism "Survival of the fittest". Sad to say it's what we have now.
Maybe next year they'll take into consideration some of these observations people have posted here.
Oh well 3 more days till NJ!
