Re: Where was the GP at Championships?

It seems that to some people GP doesn't exist.

It also seems that some teams are not interested in either
(a) the safety award or
(b) basic industrial hygiene.
Consequently their work areas 'go to pot' or whatever expression you choose.

I saw just piles of junk and stuff in some pits. The regional we went to was across the board a lot neater than Atlanta.

I had some adults tell me about an idea, and I have no idea how it could be done, but an concept where a team gets penalized for an unwillingness to get tidy and safe (which could be extended to GP).

We have points and penalties on the robot field of play, but no where else.

There were enough examples of a student playing 'jeopardy knowledge' with a judge but the actions in the pit clearly and obviously contradicted the statements.

One of the reasons I noticed all this is we provided a lot of VIP tour guide support and I was thinking about how visitors external to FIRSTers would view this event.
