Lessons learned 2005: The negative

[rocknthehawk]

I had an awesome time.....the only thing i really disliked was the walk to the playing field. I agree with what was said before....if you are on the pit crew and drive team, there was no time to do anything inbetween. The walk made the game boring in a sense...we had to walk 10 minutes just to get to the field, and then wait another ten before we even got onto the field, just to play for 2 minutes, and then make another ten minute walk back. It made me not even want to go out for practice matches.

Another dislike that was no problem by FIRST was the final matches. (i didn't see the final match or two because iw as busy crating up our bot). It seemed the finals were just capping matches, who could cap more higher and quicker. WHERE WAS THE DEFENSE??? It seemed like every match was the same...not too entertaining.

I guess there is one last thing i thought of while typing. It was waiting during the finals on our field. Since we were 13th or whatever, they said we had to wait, because if two robots broke, we would be allowed in. We had to sit and wait in the back with our bot for the finals on Curie, and the finals on Einstein until Curie was eliminated....i think that sytem could use work, but i guess there isn't much you can change.
