2016 Einstein - Chief Delphi

What I learned from week-1 is that once again my son has been inspired to the level that he came home after the BAE Systems Granite State FIRST Robotics Regional Competition with the biggest smile I have seen on his face for a long long time. I am truly grateful for that. - FIRST_Parent [more]

Re: 2016 Einstein

Please please please remove the tiebreaker rule for finals at all events, or at least finals on Einstein in 2017. I get the rule was instituted to save time during playoffs (5+ matches due to ties is never fun), but ending the world championship on a would-be-tie (especially for outside spectators) doesn't make sense.

I don't mean to take anything away from the winning alliance this year. It's just doesn't make sense from a spectator point of view, especially when sharing videos of what is supposed to be the pinnacle match of FRC to outsiders.
