[GameSense] Frank is Back Tonight to Talk Stronghold!

[Dan Petrovic]

I'm really excited for this episode. Frank visited us at Mayhem in Merrimack back in June while our friends from FIRST were testing out one of the scoring systems. When he was there, I had the opportunity to sit near him and see how he acts when nobody is looking (not in an interview, scripted video, or in a blog post) and my estimation is that he is truly a great person that absolutely loves FRC.

Frank intently watched every match. That's not easy to do at a small off-season event hosting more Recycle Rush. We know he isn't affiliated with any team, but he was celebrating with the teams that successfully scored stacks and showed dismay at any failed stacks. He wasn't there for work, at least he didn't seem to be. It seemed like he was there because some of the FIRST engineers were doing some work there and he decided to stop in and hang out.

I've always wanted to share this story, but just couldn't seem to find the right time to share it... I wanted everyone to know what I experienced. It's not something everyone gets to see.

Anyway, I'm also excited for this episode because Stronghold seems to one of the most well-received games ever released and I'd love to hear more about it.
