Re: ZOOM OUT!
After watching this year's webcasts so far, I feel the need to bring this thread up again. I don't recall which events specifically, but some were downright painful to watch. The scoring is on each end of the field. Don't show me the middle, don't show me a robot spinning in circles, or bashing itself into the wall in a lack of control. I want to see the scoring, and I want to see the defense. It does me little good to see a ball kicked but not where it ends up. So, once again, for 2010,
ZOOM OUT!
This is a game that really lends itself to a view of the ENTIRE field. There are not really very many intricate or interesting mechanisms or manipulations going on here. The positions and movements of all the robots on the field is far more interesting than what one particular robot is doing at an area not anywhere near a goal. If nothing is happening anywhere on the field, fine, zoom in for two seconds. But to miss 5/6 of the action to show one robot spinning its tires is ridiculous.
Anyone agree?

You can usually pick out the kids who will grow up to be engineers. They're the ones tearing apart their nintendo, their vcr, their minibike, and their parents' cars. - Tom Line [more]
