Speaking of rules, one place of improvement I could see: throw a current copy of the manual in the case for pit admin. Having one at the scoring table on Curie was a life-saver (show of hands, how many people not named Lavery remembered by heart the rules for backup robots on Einstein at the Championship?); having them in the pits as well would be handy for those quick double-checks.
