: You Have My Vote...
: I agree, although every team could benefit from this, it looks to me like it hurts the teams poorer in resources and people and the rookie teams more. Identical parts are the key, although we all change the robot during competition, you should only be able to make new type parts after competition starts. And the cheaters, well, cheat.

: Samuel Lindhorst

: : I think that having the rule that all replacement parts have to be fabbed before shipment is tougher on the low-budget teams.

: : Those with bigger budgets will likely have multiples made of many things because it is cheaper to do it that way. It cost less to make 2 of something once then to make one and then have to set up again to make another one.

: : FIRST should allow identical replacement parts to be made anytime. They should, as the update says, allow improvements to be fabbed from the time you check in to the time you ship at the competition.

: : Raul

You have my vote to. My team has very little money since we are just joining back after a brake since 97. We have had talks about this rule and we are not sure how we are going to do it But we will somehow.

PS. If you see us in line please let us cut (j/k)

Russell
