I completely agree. Being a compedative person, its my nature, I loved the 'old school' compedative FIRST. This seems boring. Elimination matches will be kinda boring. Especially with everybody hitting their little red buttons with 1 second to go. I think that after 1:30, hitting the red buttons shouldnt get you anything. I don't expect to see a single match go the entire 2 minutes. That will be another thing that will be the same EVERY match. How boring! Last year no 2 matches were the same, sometimes you push the team off, sometimes you dont. I see a team taking a strategy and doing the same thing through 6 elimination, 12 finals matches...

: I know its a stretch, but I am not fully coherent either. Here is my short explanation: A science fair is a demonstration of science and technology. I consider this year's game more of a demonstration of what robots can do than a robot competition. I'm not saying that it is all bad just that it does not excite me and may not inspire as many as we intended.
