Excitement doesn't matter

: Indeed it will appeal to you, and even myself, but to the average spectator, it will most likely not.

: I don't see this one being much of a non-FIRST crowd pleaser.

That implies that the point is to please the non-FIRST crowd. What do we gain by doing so? Sure, it can be said that it will encourage people to join FIRST but I don't think that just the excitement level of a game will convince someone to suddenly start a team. It's also not going to impress sponsors because they should realize that the whole point is about engineering. So why does it matter how exciting the game is to someone else? We're not trying to sell television rights here. This isn't the NFL. There's no money to be made by selling tickets. So it doesn't matter how exciting it is to spectators. Those of us who already like it will watch the competitions. Those who aren't interested won't.

Matt
