One of the things that has been mentioned in here is that the game last year was too complicated,
and scoring couldn't be done until the end. I'm sure we've all had people ask us to explain the game,
seeding, etc, to them, and we replied with 'sure, got 20 minutes?' if you want to open the 'sport'
of FIRST up to the masses, draw the crowds, get the following, we can't have a seeding system that
is this incredibly complicated. yeah, it makes sense mathematically. but i can't imagine trying to
explain to my grandfather, who attended regionals to see my team, that our seeding is based on a
standard deviation blah blah blah.
