What will FRC 2016 Stronghold be remembered by?

[mrnoble]

This game was as close to being the perfect vehicle for the mission and vision of FIRST as I have seen, or think to be possible. Raise the floor, keep the ceiling high, keep the challenge fresh, engage the culture, etc. I honestly think that Will.i.am's little statement is an "engagement with the culture" and will be a tool for reaching more students. It was the perfect capstone to a great game. I look forward to sharing that little video with my students next fall and watching the interest increase. It also doesn't hurt that this year's robots will be super easy to use as recruiting tools, unlike last year's. In short, I'll remember Stronghold as my favorite game.
