anyone have any ideas about next years game?

I think its way more fun to watch the frc games that score like sports, as apposed to watching a robot do missions (no offense to FLL I'm mentoring one of those). I just think that there needs to be more scoring in the games, Lunacy's big moon rocks dumps were really exciting as opposed to scoring 1 point at a time in Breakaway.

While I agree games like you described are probably the gems of the games FIRST has had, even though Breakaway was low scoring it was still had high energy. With the use of defense and Robots often in almost "mini wrestling matches" it was probably one of the best games I've seen since I first started watching FRC games years ago.

Lunacy was honestly really, really boring compared to Breakaway. In Lunacy, scores were rarely close enough for a single action to sway the game, and you couldn't tell if that action was important enough anyway. Breakaway very naturally grew in excitement as the match progressed, starting with a strong autonomous mode and building up to the end game final scores or hangs.
