I am happy to see people writing about this topic and thinking about it. Imagine being on the GDC and taking so many aspects of the competition into account when designing the game and implementing it. I have absolutely no doubt that the challenges that teams face are taken into account each season.

I also think that many teams take a lot for granted - like being able to pick up their KOP at their kick off location without thinking a thing about it. There are teams who have to figure out how to get to the location to get their KOP or make arrangements with other teams to pick it up for them and get it to them. We've participated in helping with that before. Travel to a remote kick off that involves time, money, and transportation isn't always easy. International teams face that as well as other challenges, some of which are being talked about here in this thread. It's good for the members of the FRC community to have an opportunity to learn more and understand more about what it takes to make the program that we are passionate about available to teams.

I wish all the best to the team in Bosnia, Pat. Let me know if there is any way I can be of help to them or to you. Thank you and the team for supporting them in their effort this season. Rookies rock. Veterans rock. Veterans helping rookies totally rock.
