Re: Future First Championship News

Well, I guess I now understand how the Georgia teams felt when Championships left Atlanta. I'm going to miss being able to go every year as a volunteer and spectator. When I do go it's going to be a lot more expensive and require more vacation days, and I'm going to have to pick which half of the world I want to see playing, since there's no way I can afford the vacation time or the travel costs of going to both.

I really dislike the idea of my team being cut off from half the teams in the world with whatever the geographic border ends up being. We're about equidistant from Detroit and Houston, so I can't guess which way we'll get assigned. There are so many amazing team combinations that will never be possible at a regular-season event again -- for example, the Texas and FIM powerhouses will never see each other before off-season events. I understand that Championships has turned into a city-melter in terms of event logistics/hotel space/etc, and I am somewhat sympathetic to wanting to get more teams to championships, particularly for FTC/FLL; however, I think this is going to reduce the quality of the FRC event substantially.
