You must learn to either work around them or use them to your advantage - preferably a bit of both. Rules like G14 fall into the category of a learning experience. So learn from it and move on, because next year the rules will be different and there will be some other constraint you don't like. And when you get to the real world the number of constraints you DON'T like may well outnumber the ones you do 
The complaints both for and against G14 are well known and I'm sure FIRST will take that into account when building next year's rule set. But since the game may be entirely different a G14 like rule might not even be appropriate. Concentrate on learning new stuff, filled with positive energy and G14 will fade into the background just like your 2nd grade math final - how many of you actually remember that? |
I can't totally agree with this. While it's true it isn't worth our time to complain about things, would half the threads on Chief Delphi even exist if we didn't talk abou things that already happened?
I do, however agree, that it's not worth complaing about and just another thing we have to work around.
