Game Idea

I think a cool idea for next year would be for the entire court to be in the dark. Teams would have to be able to navigate using infrared or night vision. I think the auto mode should be longer with more emphasis on the point bonus. Possibly some shooting aspect too. Just a thought.

Re: Game Idea

I was thinking about football the other day, and realized why FIRST may be avoiding it lol. Such an awkward shape for a ball.

Actually, football would be great... so long as we could figure out a way to incorporate field reset as part of the game. Over 60% of a typical football game consists of players standing around doing nothing...
