"This year's game was designed by a different group of people than previously."

That's right. It was actually really interesting; a different group of FRC Staff did the game this year, which was why they reverted from sensor scoring back to ref scoring, and the game 'felt' different. It also explains the lack of an endgame.

Well, I guess that's the reason why this year went the way it did. Can Frank make sure to get a lot of real FRC vets onto the GDC next year? You know, people that actually know what makes for a good/bad game?
