Re: Rookie Team impressions from Kettering

I haven't attended an event yet this year, but I quite honestly wouldn't care if our record gets messed around a little by G22. It won't ruin the six weeks. Losing a match because of a penalty, but hurdling successfully during it, should be a huge victory.

Due to the way that FIRST works, with a new game each year, and little to no opportunity to test it before the competitions, something like this will come up each year. Last year, it was rings around the flag. It was frustrating, but it didn't ruin the experience. I have been watching these events for several years, and year after year I am in awe of how well the GDC does at creating an effective, fun, spectator-friendly game. One little thing like this dosen't ruin it.
