Go to Post I think that in general people should worry more about what they are doing, and less about what others are doing. That goes for a lot more than FIRST. - pfreivald [more]

Re: Vote to change the format of FIRST.

If FIRST wants to be able to continue holding events in the same venues, they have to abide by the rules the unions give them. Everyone DOESNT have the same time to work on their robot. With your system it would make Week 6 Regionals FAR FAR more competitive than Week 1 regionals. They're bad enough as it is with multiple event teams having some on-field time. If their build season was 13 weeks instead of 6, it would be a completely different game. FIRST is trying to keep the level of competition at least somewhat similar from event to event, week to week. Yes, everyone would have had the SAME time to work on it, but later events have MORE time than earlier ones, and thats the problem.
