Re: Vote to change the format of FIRST.
Where is it written that FIRST tries to be fair to everyone?
Why do teams that can afford more than one regional have to become handicapped?
Why do teams that build practice robots have to become handicapped and not build them?
If you handicap those who can and do, you are also handicapping the dreams of those who want to and work to achieve/attain those goals.
Inspiration grows with/through development and struggle. Inspiration dies when handicapped and/or quelled.
