: Tom,

: I like the petition idea. I think that we just need to go back to 2 on 2. The realist in my recognizes that we will never go back to every robot for itself...but I don't truly think we should either. I would miss the comrodery that the aliance mentality has brought to FIRST...but I think 2 on 2 is a happy medium let's stick w/it 4 a while.



Justin;

Thank you for your support. I was thinking of simply calling on FIRST to restore head to head competition of some sort, without trying to define it any more closely than that...I agree that it is highly unlikely we would ever see every robot for itself again, if you look at the current field design, it would certainly lend itself not only to 2 on 2, but it could be 4 on 4, or 2 on 2 on 2 on 2 or any of another of interesting possibilities...I'll post the proposed text ina couple of days here abouts and await commments.

Tom
