My wish? make the BuildBlitzs/RobotIn3Days projects go away...

[Kernaghan]

In the most respectful way possible, I completely disagree.

Watching experienced FIRSTers and skilled mentors show ways to initially tackle a task and then blaming them for stealing creativity is kind of like saying: "I'm never going to be an inventor because so many things have already been invented".

Just look at some of the greatest inventions of mankind, basic concepts and ideas were taken, then added upon, revolutionizing the world.

Watching JVN's design shoot the ball from 15ft completely opened the idea to our team that shooting the ball from 20ft was not outside the realm of possibility, thus inspiring us to be more CREATIVE.

Thank you Ri3D and BuildBlitz!
