Re: FIRST in Michigan Thoughts/Impressions

I'm not entirely sure if this question belongs here, but I didn't think the question required it's own thread. [Feel free to move it]

This is by no means a jab at the credibility of the Michigan teams competing, but as talk continues of expanding the district structure elsewhere I'm curious how one aspect of the modified(?) competition rules worked.

Obviously it's been known that teams had to "bag & zip-tie" their robots and bring them to their competition site. But how was this enforced? Was their some way of knowing/checking that a robot in fact stayed untouched between competitions? I assume FIRST instated some method of checking this beyond gracious professionalism, scouts honor, etc. such as unique/not-easily-reproducible ties or stickers that would make it known if the seal had been broken. But I wasn't too clear how that worked.
