Re: Future Championship Poll
No. They presented something ambiguous and seemingly problematic without addressing obvious concerns. It is unsettling that "more is to come" because I believe there should've been more foresight and addressing all these problems BEFORE they committed to this format. Now they have no option but to push ahead. If this is an indication of similarly poor planning by FIRST in the future, and extreme lack of concern for teams (evidenced by them not asking anyone about this before making the change), then I fear that FIRST will soon fail to be the premier format for competition robotics. I know it's not all about the robot, but I signed up for a competition, not a convention, and so did many other people.

Welcome to FIRST! You will soon figure out that there is no "exit strategy" from this program. - David Brinza [more]
