Lightbulb Re: Should teams be pushed to make higher quality robots?

Maybe FRIST could start a award that highlights the creativity and design of a robot. Of cores you want functionality out of your robot. How about creating something that appeals to the eye and shows of the creativity of your team. Maybe making fancy robots will help bring more spectators to the competitions most people are afraid of gears,chains and sprockets. Its not difficult to polish up the chassis and smooth out the rough edges. Teams should not be pushed but encouraged!
