Re: If you could change one rule - eliminate ship requirement discussion

Just as a thought regarding the extra time thing for some--suppose build season was staggered.

For example, 1293 goes to Palmetto. We'd receive our kit about seven weeks or so before the event, build, and load up the truck and drive it there.

Now say, for example, that 330 wants to come to Palmetto (and for these purposes, only Palmetto), and will have to ship the robot. They would receive their kit three weeks earlier than 1293 does, and be required to ship it out three weeks before the event.

I'm not sure how multiple events would work--one part of me says that teams that can afford multiple regionals can usually afford shipping from event to event, but I know that might not always be the case. Thoughts?
