**FIRST EMAIL**/A note on the FRC scoring system

Greetings Teams:

As the FIRST community goes into the third week of the 2005 FRC regional events, I would like to share our thoughts and the latest information on this year’s scoring system.

I would first like to apologize for the problems with the system during the first two weeks. FIRST takes full responsibility for these problems and we deeply regret any impact they may have created for our teams, referees, and volunteers.

I would also like you to know that FIRST is working as hard as possible on a solution that will be implemented for week three. In addition to the automated scoring system, FIRST will provide a proven backup scoring system that will be used to check and validate the automatic scoring system. FIRST is committed to ensuring everyone has the best possible experience at the FRC regional events.

As you know, one problem area has been the availability and accuracy of information on match results. We have accurate information on the award winners and the top eight alliances for the first two weeks. These results will be posted on the FIRST web site. After reviewing the situation, we unfortunately are not one hundred percent certain we can reliably retrieve results for all matches played, and so, will not be posting these results to the FIRST web site.

The feedback from the teams and spectators from the first two weeks of events has been great. FIRST would like to commend all the teams for the quality of play, the excitement of the matches, and for realizing the vision of the 2005 FRC Game Design Committee. I would also like to acknowledge the tremendous job of the teams and referees in working within the rules of this year’s game.

We thank you for your patience and understanding as we’ve addressed the scoring system problems. We can't wait to see the remaining events. Keep up the great work and have a good time!

Take care,

Paul Shay
Executive Director
FIRST
