I have to agree with Andy. Although my team #378 has yet to compete in a regional, we are attending the Great lakes regional, I can see by watching on nasa tv and reading all the postings. That the TIME multiplier is critical to having a big score IE: 620 @ Wetsern Michigan.

I agree that watching this competition is like watching golf, Its not very exciting to watch, But it is Very exciting to Play, Im sure I will find this out at The Great lakes Reg.

I also can understand that being behind the Glass is very Chaotic. But that's what I like, and I LOOK FORWARD TO THE GREAT LAKES REGIONAL.

I agree!!!!! My team,495, was at VCU and felt shafted by this. We designed a manipulator especially for perfect balancing. For us this rule left us a bit unneeded.
