What I'd really like to see at first is two rounds of competition per day. One competition, in the morning and into the early afternoon, ending around 3 or 4. But after a good 6 to 8 hour break (lots of time to take advantage of Disney everyday), I'd like to see matches in the middle of the night. While some of us make it out to Old Town, or Disney Quest, or the Movies, numerous teams go back to the hotel and just joke around there while they'd rather be working with the robots. So why not give us what we want? Two years ago, at our first match on Thursday it was getting dark outside and they turned on the lights(I think we were on the outdoor Einstein field). It was great being in the spotlight, I'd love to play more matches under the light.

My other idea is a lot more fun. Ever gone galaxy bowling or midnight bowling (when the bowling alley is lit by black lights, everything light colored shows up bright.) I'd like to see the robots covered in neon tape as well as the balls (or whatever object) and the goal. It'd be fun. Harder to see, yes, but definately interesting.
