Best FIRST game...

[Briansmithtown]

In your opinion, what was your favorite FIRST game. Last year's game was so simple, but exciting when we got to competitions. Also being my last year as a FIRST student, and driving during the competitions, It made it a very fun game and experience.

I'm a big fan of the 2009 game Lunacy.

I see someone's trying to get some negative rep around here

I have to go with last year. The entire elimination matches at Lake Superior were some of the best and most thrilling matches I've ever seen.

You and the referees. That was the easiest game to ref. Almost nothing to call on the robots, only stupid human player tricks.

Other than that, I liked Triple Play and Rack n Roll - I guess I just like weird scoring opportunities.

This one ought to be pretty close to that. Other than a robot knocking stuff out of its area (off field or over step), the only thing the refs really have to do is make sure the HPs aren't up to sneaky tricks and count the score at the end.

Autonomous mode is going to be crazy to score, especially if teams are reaching into the step to grab the containers. There's barely a delay between auto and teleop, so assessing the state of the entire field in that tiny fraction of a second is not extremely easy.

A delay can be added in. See: 2006, 2007.

In my almost 6 years of competing in the FRC, I would still have to say that Logomotion was my favorite, but I feel like Recycle Rush has a good shot at overtaking it this year.

(I like lifting games.)

I'm a big fan of 2007's Rack 'n Roll.

I also think FIRST went on a great game streak in the 2012, 2013, and 2014 seasons. I loved all three.

Best autonomous is 2011 (Logomotion).
Best teleop is 2009 (Lunacy).
Best endgame is 2012 (Rebound Rumble).

[Neima]

Huge fan of 2012 Rebound Rumble. Its a shame that there were problems with field connections.

I'm with Gary, Lunacy was a lot of fun.

I guess some teams didn't figure out how to make it a fun game?
