It seems like you could balance a 5th on the top.

This is fantastic, but isn't there a rule that says at the beginning of the match you can only be touching one ball? As soon as the match begins, you can gain possession of more balls, but at the start, you can only be in contact with one. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Yeah, but with a still image you can't tell that they didn't start with one ball, and then drove backwards to pick up 3 more. The robot autonomously trying to pick up balls would explain the bad alignment with the field tape in the picture.

However, I'm pretty sure this is a joke.

Then there is the fact that they are possessing 3 of their opponents balls.

The rule is you're allowed to only touch one ball that isn't in contact with another alliance robot unless that robot is in the goalie zone.

Given that the rules make it impossible for an alliance to have more than 3 balls in Auto in the first place, I'm sure the rules aren't an issue here.

A 4 ball auto hot from one robot should be an automatic win for the alliance.

Can you kink a video of your robot doing the four ball auto I think it would be cool to see it on video because your team is not going to IRL to see it

There is a good chance OP is just trolling. They haven't released a video of their auto if it does exist. The only way to know for sure is to watch IRI tomorrow and Saturday.
