Re: Next Year's Game?

the low friction surface was interesting, but it made it boring to watch becuase the game was in slow motion. also, i hated seeing a match decided by the scoring of a human player! this is a robotics competition, not basketball. another big thing was pinning! how frustrating do you think it was for us teams who spant long, hard hours building a great robot, only to see it being pinned and essentially taken out of the game by a robot nothing more than a drive base!

overall, i would like to see a more exciting competition, requiring more exciting robots(rather than just robots composed of a bunch of rollers).

if the people really want FIRST to expand, they need to make a "WOW!" competition, instead of just a "oh, cool, i guess." competition.
