Team Update #19 - "Double Play"

http://www2.usfirst.org/2005comp/Upd..._Update_19.pdf

I guess the 3 vs 3 experiment failed. According to this update, the game will be played 2 vs 2 for this weekend's regionals and Championships.

Most of the update just changes the wording of the rules to apply to two robots per alliance as opposed to three. Of particular interest, though:
Quote:
Why are we making this change?
FIRST's policy has always been to avoid drastic rule changes late in the season. Based on the experience to date at the regionals,however, it has become clear that the previous format didn't lend itself to a high-scoring, offensive game. We feel that this change is in the best interest of teams, sponsors, and especially referees.

Frankly, the 3-on-3 format was all Woodie's idea. But what would you expect from the guy who came up with floppies?
