[Official 2005 Game Design] OK, so YOU design the 2005 game...

Overall, I feel this idea.

Just two things I noticed in the rules...first, I'm not too sure about that HP job. I think we'd do well in the South, since football is king down here. But some of those schools up north may have trouble. Perhaps something more Stack Attack-y?

My other thing is with the pipes in midfield. A foot and a half is pretty skinny, leading me to think that most teams would make their robot N by 18" by 12". That's pretty petite...and if there's one thing we need to keep the "civilian" (for lack of a better word) crowd interested, it's big things with lots of action (hence why I loved FIRST Frenzy). The same thing applies to the field--in 2k3, it was the stack. In 2k4, it was the bar. Every field has to have that THING. I'm not exactly sure what it could be here, though.

But overall, it's a good idea. We need more footballs in FIRST.
