Re: Trivial FIRST ...FIRST is not trivial!

After a very long and thorough discussion on our team, we came to the conclusion that some of the categories were lacking, so we slightly changed the categories to fit everyone's interests

Games: all about FRC games, ranging from rules, names, and various other game related topics; example: Hexagon Havic was played in what year? (1996)
Technically Speaking: questions about engineering, programming, robot specs, gear ratios, etc.; example: What were the dimension restrictions for the 2009 game Lunacy? (38" by 28" by 60")
Miscellaneous: anything FIRST related; includes the media and pop culture categories; example: What company does Dean Kamen work for? (DEKA)
Non-Technical: Questions about anything not relating to the robot, including common knowledge, awards criteria, and anything else FIRST related (primary focus is awards criteria); example: What percentage must your website score to get website excellence? (80%)
All About FIRST: Questions about/relating to FIRST; example: What year was FIRST founded? (1989)
Go Teams!: all about teams, with special emphasis on their accolades and achievements; example: the first team to win the chairman's award* was who? (191 X-Cats, 1992)
*RCA wasn't introduced until 10 years later, thus the national chairman's award was the only chairman's award

I hope these are better
