Re: A plead to FIRST, anyone else agree?

I say, we all come together and boycott until they promise a new never before seen exciting game that makes the playing field even for all teams veterans and rookies..

Re: A plead to FIRST, anyone else agree?

I am proud to be a nerd. Just saying. I would define a nerd as an addict... Addicted to knowledge. Some things I do in life is just for the pure knowledge gained from it. Sure, writing in Assembly probably will not give an advantage to my team, but I am doing it for the knowledge gained from the experience.

I will be frank with you, I do not like how FRC is run, but I really can't do much about it. I do not like the standardization of every aspect of the game.

Re: A plead to FIRST, anyone else agree?

If we give this thread a chance, it could be a very thought-provoking thread and provide a lot of insight into what people are thinking as we move towards the end of a long season. I'd like to see a thoughtful discussion with some thoughtful posts contributed rather than watch the discussion devolve into blanket generalizations and accusations. Those are never interesting or fun.
