My main beef with this years game is the game design itself.

I think one of the things FIRST didn't realize is it takes half the game to get a good stack going while only three seconds to knock it down. As a result, the winning bots were the ones that were fast and able to stay on the top of the ramp. I really don't think this year's game was played the way the game designers envisioned it would be - compared to the alternatives of just knocking things down, the technical strategy to the game just wasn't worth it for most teams.

From the Evil Overlord list::
