I'm not sure if you meant to but you came off pretty bitter and angry. I think that AT Man was trying to start a discussion on why or why not to use a multi geared transmission. And theres still plenty of build time left, especailly considering people have built entire bots during the practice times before regionals.

2 Speed Gear Boxes...

Pros:
Versatile in the fact they can push and run.
If you can shift on the fly you can get better acceleration.
It looks really cool.
Teaches the team alot if its the first time you've tried it.

Cons:
Heavier than a 1 speed.
Have to use pnematics,servo,motor.
Complex to fix/build.
Larger space wise.
