Re: Coopertition Award.
Coopertition (doncha just luv word fabrications?) happens all over the arena - pits, field, stands, even the necessary room (thanks, RAGE?) BUT the only(?) place it can be scored is in a match. Soooooooooo, you're trying to recognize and encourage this mindset of helpfulness, what can you do? Can't give points for every bolt tightened by another team or code assistance given that clears up a tricky Labview knot, can you?
What we're seeing this year is the attempt to reward helpful behavior as progenitor of an exciting competition by cooperation. IMHO, of course. I'd like to see something more like the safety tokens for cooperation as at least one of the components of this award, but, Hey, it's early yet. Does anyone think we're done inventing FIRST?
