Was Rebound Rumble the Best Game Yet?

[AmoryG]

I have only watched FRC since 2008, so I will only list the 2008-2012 competitions:

1. Breakaway: It may not have had the best seeding system, but it was by far the easiest to understand, and the most fun for both competitors and spectators. Even bad robots could perform, but the best clearly played at a much higher level.

2. Rebound Rumble: At the highest level, this was the most competitive FRC game. This is ranked #2 for one reason alone: The division elimination rounds. Spectacular and completely unexpected.

3. Overdrive: Simple, fun for audiences and players, this was probably one of the more competitive and balanced games. Although there weren't many tasks a robot could accomplish, there was a lot of different and interesting robots.

4. Logomotion: Sometimes not very competitive, and a little boring. It was a bit hard to watch, although I thought it was creative, especially the end game. It was definitely more fun at a higher level.

5. Lunacy: Boring and hard to understand. It did not draw in audiences, and it was probably the least fun game to play.
