Breakaway field should have been green

[SuburBot]

Hello,
I've seen all your comments and have had time to formulate a response.

I didn't see a non green field anywhere this year. What regional are you talking about?

If I remember correctly they were green and depending on the light it would look more like a greenish gray.

Perhaps you're referring to some of the off season events?

As embarrassing as this sounds, I flat out forgot that the fields had a slight hue of dark green. Most of the fields I've seen since the competition season have been on low quality TBA videos. Most scrimmage footage or robot teaser videos by teams had a gray field, so that added to the idea.

Personallly I liked the slight hint of color as opposed to a bright, turf like, green. Colors are a very funny thing, ask anyone who has ever painted a room in their house. What may seem like a good idea ends up being way too dark or too bright very quickly. If FIRST went to fields that were brightly colored, it could get pretty distracting. I think the way they went this past year was perfectly fine.

This is a very good point. I was thinking brighter might be better, but maybe a slight tone is less of an eyesore.

Honestly, regardless of game the green carpet just looked a lot better on field than gray... I hope they keep changing the color.

I do too.

Sorry for the confusion and thank you for the clarification.
