Finally to top it off, while there were 2 classes of robots, there still existed the challenge of making a robot to "do-it-all" and while that type of robot was difficult to build it was still a strong possibility for many teams.
It was just great in so many ways, and I'd like to see another game like it for 2010.

I agree, 2007 was my favorite year and I wish we could redo that year. Can't wait for the 2010 game and please bring back carpet, please.
I'm sure FIRST did the math. They always do the math. Just not math humans use. It was probably given to them from NASA from the aliens so we'd quit predicting the divisions before they release it. - Koko Ed [more]
