Re: Championship Location Announced

Place an FTC field (and even an FLL table) for every FRC field. This eliminates the need for separate areas, and they just round-robin the playing. Run an FRC match, then FTC, then FLL, then repeat. (or combine this option with option 1 and just do FTC/FRC together, and FLL in their own separate area, either in the center of the dome floor or in a similar configuration to what we have now)
From an FTC perspective, this does not make sense. Sticking more people in an already crowded area will only make seating worse. FTC, with its smaller field, is much better up close. I know FRC is not that great from far away, but it is much better than FTC (the screens are not nearly good enough to be far away. Also, FTC has 2 divisions, with two fields each. Having division fields separated by a whole FRC field will only make people need to walk back and forth a lot, and be stuck sitting behind FRC teams who can afford to stay put (not trying to complain, just pointing out that it does not really make sense. Also, FTC currently has 1 scoring table per division, and one set of interconnected field electronics. Dividing it around an FRC field would make that very difficult. Also, this would save very little space other than the gap between FTC and Curie (I think), as the fields would not get any smaller, and they are pretty compact as they are.
