I wonder how long it will be before we start uncrating on the Monday of championship week...

I feel like we're almost at the point of critical mass. I don't see it being possible to squeeze another day into championship week, and if we add more teams, we certainly won't be able to continue with 10 matches per team.

It will be easier when the district system is mostly everywhere and FIRST can decrease the size of Championship without under-representing any region (like Michigan was in 2010-2013, arguably 2009 too). That is, if FIRST considers a smaller Championship to be acceptable. I would absolutely be a proponent.

They'll probably only have time for one practice match per team.
Cycle times are key. Last year's game had a fairly complex reset, which took time. This year's field should be able to be turned around much faster. |

Wow. I love this change. An easy way to add more matches, without adding too much time. I like it.

FIRST continues their full-frontal assault on mentor's vacation days.

Thankfully with this game there is not a lot that goes into field reset. I can see minimal time in between matches, no getting robots of a tower, bridges, putting balls or frisbees in to certain places. They will be able to quickly turn over matches.

I'm glad we're getting more matches, but this is going to be one exhausting Championship. |

This is nice, but very stressful for teams. The ten matches will really be nice though. Only getting one practice match will be tough, especially when it's on Wednesday. Not all of our team is there on Wednesday, so it'll be tough.

I'll be there, ready to rock and roll. All of us like to play robots, and there is ample data to show that playing more matches helps get the seeding right.
Teams, pay attention to Big Al's inspection thread, and crate your 'bot "inspection ready" if possible. Getting all inspections completed Wednesday evening will challenge both teams and volunteers, but we CAN and WILL get this done. |
