QUESTION OF THE WEEK!!! [10-07-01]

Hi all. After being an inspector and score keeper in a off season competition, and the one who handed out the awards to teams, I started wondering about the awards. Everyone who showed up in that competition deserved to win an award due to their accomplishment through out the year, but the fact that there are limited ones drove teams to become who they are today... With that in mind, here is the question of the week...

QUESTION 10/07/01 : What awards would you like to see FIRST have for next year's competition?

I know that due to last year's format, awards such as the feather weight award was taken out... So let's assume FIRST is going back to head to head competition. Also, this question isn't limited to the robots. Maybe some would like more recognition for animation teams, or teams who did a lot for their local community, or teams' webpages that did a lot for others...

I understand that FIRST isn't about winning, but we should recognize the fact that competition and awards inspire teams to set a high goal, and challenge themselves to the limit, trying to get themselves to do really good in the events...

Have fun,
-Ken Leung
