That's certainly an understatement. I think everyone understands that many factors have lead to this game becoming difficult to both score and adjudicate. Both teams and volunteers have suffered immensely because of it. However it's imperative that FIRST as an organization and a community learn from the plethora of mistakes made in recent history, so as not to repeat them.

I wasn't intending to bring up any specific events, but since you brought up SVR, I'm more than happy to discuss it (or any of the other incidents to which I alluded to) with you outside of this thread if you'd prefer it.*

People have every right to be upset and I'm certainly more sympathetic to the kids who were robbed of the experiences they deserved, than the people who took it from them. The students and teams acted with Gracious Professionalism in nearly all the cases I am aware of. I don't know if I can say the same of those responsible for the decisions, whomever they may be.
