Bill's Blog 6/15/11: "What percent of viewers read the title?"

[Francis-134]

Every team at each event paid at least $4000 to attend. Bypassing a team should always be a last resort. We are your customers, FIRST.

This year, we were never bypassed. However, we did experience a couple of variant behaviors that appeared and disappeared without any change in the robot hardware or software. All that had to happen to get the robot working was to wait, and it seemingly magically connected.

But apparently, I am in a minority. Would anyone in the community who is in favor of bypassing robots to stay on a more aggressive schedule like to comment?
