I agree with you completely. I think the impact of a
simplified game would not only be for the media
however. 73 had not been in competition since 1998 and
after the game was released, a comment made by one of
the teachers who had previously participated (from
'93-'98) said that the game was just to complex. I
also was told that one of our students made the comment
that the SME Robotics Competition was more interesting
than FIRST. The game this year had some neat ideas
(balancing the bridge was one of them), but it tried to
do too much. I highly doubt that we'll see simpler
games with 4 robots to an alliance because if that were
to happen there wouldn't be much for all the robots to
do. It's also much harder to explain how you win
without any onfield competition (it took my team until
week 3 or 4 to understand). I think that more than
anything this year will be a learning experience for
FIRST about what works and what doesn't.

Matt who hopes that FIRST learns the right things from
this years competition....
