Is it me or am I sensing a turning of the tables here. How can teams compete against each other, in a win/lose format, when everyone is sharing their secrets with each other. Don't get me wrong, we all should share knowledge and learn from each other. But isn't this a contest with teams pitted against each other? I realize that we all aspire to a higher standard of gracious professionnalism, but we are still trying to beat each other, basically. Maybe we should just loan our robots to each other in case one should be a little better built than another, or if this is not really about winning, but learning, then not be so concerned with kickin design features which tend to beat other teams. A light bulb just went on in my head! This contest lets you choose your own balance between being out for blood to win, or lets you be cool with just being there and enjoying the commeraderie of FIRST and learning about math and science, or somewhere in between. Do I have it or am I lost?
