Re: [FTC]: FTC pits?

In my experience, until the FTC World Champioinship, they typically work from/on a table, and that is their "pit".
I think that folks like to use the term "pit" to refer to any place where maintenance and match prep occurs, not just to refer to a (roughly) 10x10 space bounded by pipe-and-drape in an FRC venue.
