Traverse City Opinions?

[EricLeifermann]

The event was allot better than I thought it was going to be, but it stiff didn't fell like a FIRST event, it felt way more close to a off season event with a little science fair thrown in.

As for the scoring thing mentioned before, i agree it didn't look like a very accurate way of scoring. several times we went on to the field to pick up our bot and had 2 people pulling balls out of our trailer and counting out loud and both had different #'s. I also think that since we fell SO behind on Friday that in the hurry hurry hurry to catch up in time that the scores might not have been as accurate as they could have been if everyone had slowed down just a bit and took a little more time.

Now with saying that i do not believe that a lot of the matches were completely effected by this(the alliance that won usually was supposed to win) as you could clearly tell, most of the time, what alliance had won. It was those close matches that should have been double and triple checked, especially in the elims.

I want to thank the volunteers for their effort i know that most of you were volunteering because it was mandatory, but we still needed it all the more.

Oh and one more note congrats to the winners.
