This year's "game" is a job, not a game

I'm not a fan of the game and I think that certain aspects of it, if adopted long term, could harm the FIRST program. I think a game that (in my opinion) doesn't engage an audience of non-engineers in the same way that a sporting event does is contrary to FIRST's goals. Because of this, and because I want FIRST to continue to inspire and engage students, I will make my opinions known.

you paying 5k....

You are not the team you dont personally spend 5k on the game therefore you didnt pay 5k. We all pay the same entry fee and we all play the same game. I dont love the game but theres nothing we can do about it. Give the gdc a break because I am sure you wouldnt want their job (I Know i wouldnt) they make a solid game every year and all everyone ever does is complain. Its not a sports themed game and a lot of people like sports themed games. But it doesnt mean its not a fun game to play. The GDC doesnt need your opinion to help them. Throughout build season they have heard thousands of the same opinions; and I hate to break it to you they are moest likely deep in development of next years game.

Im not wanting to start a war I simply want to drop the atomic bomb to end it.
