Oh, and the most universally disliked game of all time was 2001 and its 4v0 format.
Probably one of the most intense rounds I saw was the set in Arizona QFs involving team 60 (I think QF3) and the Arizona semis (SF1) that went to three matches due to a penalty-induced tie at 9 points apiece. (Would have been 10-9, but one of the robots on the alliance with 10 touched a robot in contact with a tower.)

In one of our matches we "won" 12 to 0... then we found out one of our alliance partners got
11 points in penalties. We won 1 to zero

Personally, I loved last year's game. The open field and horrible driving conditions, coupled with the massive scoring potential were fun to me. I also liked that you didn't have to be completely accurate in your scoring, and the "bump and dump" approach to the game seemed to work rather well. But, that's just me. I know plenty of people who rather disliked Lunacy.

I also loved last years game, it was excellent to watch, waiting for that critical dump or score. I started this year hating the new game, but It's grown on me a lot

And hey, in this game there is still massive scoring potential hehe
And AceJames! If I had a dollar for everytime someone asked me if FIRST was like battlebots, I'd be rich. That just made my day.
