Re: FRC Blog - Get Ready to Make FIRST Choices
Your mental model of FC is important to understanding it.
FIRST Choice is _not_ a bunch of stuff selected by FIRST to help you build this year's robot.
FIRST Choice is a bunch of potentially useful stuff donated by suppliers. You're buying not just for this year but for your stockpile as well.
Last year, we got solenoids, NPT fittings, a crimper, pneumatic tubing, among other things. None of it ended up on the robot.

I'm sure there aren't a bunch of rule makers sitting in a board room discussing "What rule can we change now to mess with the teams' heads?" Lets all just sit back and enjoy the regionals! - Rick [more]
