You know the punishment for treason is 11 lashings with a wet noodle...lol...sorry, i had to say that. Anyway, in a post in the general forum it said that FIRST has 652 teams registered to attend at least one regional. So we beat battlebots
Further, I think that even if BattleBots had more robots, FIRST would still 'stay on top' because of the quality and overall purpose of the orginazation. I suppose that I'm pretty bias though....
