Chairmans award

yes the chairmans award is about the team, but its not about the people, its about ideas. Its about initative, and creativity. By not allowing for this in their essay format they are essentially saying that being a monotonous paper-pusher is acceptable and a goal of FIRST is to turn us into drones.

For many awards such as the buisness plans I feel that the goal of it it to present a concrete goal and for this an essay with graphs is approrriate, but for an award that signifies free thinking this is an awful regression on their part.
