Similar to how different regions of FRC have different styles of robots, Chairman's programs and submissions often take the feel of what has been done successfully by the leaders in the community. In addition, judging philosophies seem to vary, with certain regions putting a greater emphasis certain criteria.

"Enthusiasm is one of the most powerful engines of success. When you do a thing, do it with all your might. Put your whole soul into it. Stamp it with your own personality. Be active, be energetic, be enthusiastic and faithful and you will accomplish your object. Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm" -- R.W. Emerson
