nick reynolds is on a distinguished road
You make some great points that I have to agree with but its more important that FIRST agrees with than us.
I think I would like to see some thing very new happen next year that might solve a few of the problems. so how about this idea. Love to see if you love or hate it.
OK we all agree that FIRST has grown to big to fast. so with this in mind FIRST had to shorten the playing field and they did it by the ODD/EVEN rule. Boooo.
Anyway what if next year they know how many teams are able to go to the Nationals and the know how many regionls there are so they divide the regionals into the National and come up with an average.
For instance if the # is 24 then the top 8 teams and their aliances get to go to the Nats. This in my mind is the fairest way to have the best of the best attend the Nationals. Yes there will be disapointment but this way you get to go on the merit of you Robot and alliance, not by the type of # at the end of your team.
With this system when you get to go its because you did it right, not wrong.
Works for me.
Nick
