Question about scoring blue ring from red alliance in quad quandry
i have a question. What happens if you are on the red alliance and you score with a blue ring in quad quandry?


 * Blue gets the points. Scoring depends on ring color only, regardless of the robot who scored it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.4.233.138 (talk) 15:30, 27 June 2008 (UTC)

Vandalism by Sergei971
In adding winners of this year's season, I noticed that user, Sergei971, had changed/vandalized last year's winners, changing their names to things like, Cubix^2, Already Determined, and BoBurminghamBots, all while saying he fixed a "typo". AntiLie (talk) 18:42, 30 April 2017 (UTC)

Inclusion of India results
It is undue to include the results from the India championship, because then it would make sense to include every event at the level that feeds into the World Championship events (which would be unwieldly). The World Champs makes sense to include (since there are only 2, St. Louis and Houston). Chris857 (talk) 20:23, 10 July 2018 (UTC)

Fix FTC pilot dates
The pilot year for FVC/FTC was 2004-2005, the pilot Champs were played at the FIRST Championship in 2005. The first full open season was 2005-2006. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Astro Jetson jr (talk • contribs) 11:25, May 26, 2019 (UTC)

Update for current season
The article and infobox should be updated to reflect the current season. A page should probably be created for the FIRST Skystone season, as one was created for the Rover Ruckus season. Thanks! --Nywillb (talk) 18:58, 2 October 2019 (UTC)

FTC world's
FTC worlds is no longer held in Houston and Detroit, it is now only held in Houston. Don't have an exact source or date, but I do have firsthand experience with FTC, as I am currently a participant 174.247.3.90 (talk) 00:32, 22 June 2023 (UTC)
