Quoted for truth. There was a very good setup in 2012 and 2013 where even if not separated by match, there are videos on YouTube with blocks of matches (not sure if it's separated by days or just length restrictions) put up by FIRST. Why did this setup not return in later years?

There are 2014 videos out there on YouTube but they are tough to find again. 2015 had none. My question is also asking about having it at the regional and district events, but especially the championship.

For 2015, FIM and PNW (I'm pretty sure) have all the events up on YouTube with nearly every match available (there's spotty issues with certain matches, at least in FIM).

New England has most of ours up to, but I believe that is just because of a dedicated volunteer rather than FIRST getting involved. Which is fine if it's a consistent solution at every event (which it is not).

Frank,

Inquiring minds want to know: what is Frank short for? Franklin? Francisco? Francis?

[BenGuy]

Frank, how early do the game designers get done with the entire game creation process before kickoff? Also, how long does it take one game to be developed completely?

Finally, will there be a championship match between the victors of the split championships or two worlds champion teams?
