6) Rinse, repeat
7) At the end of the match, lower the bridge and get on

Number 2 on your list is a huge liability. Even a single penalty with that strategy would knock that bot off my pick list completely.

A tiny, tiny robot with the ability to...

1) Somehow transfer your balls to a partner in autonomous mode (could be as simple as a ramp that tips and rolls the balls to your partner)
2) Not take penalties
3) Climb the bridge

...will be a prized commodity during eliminations, even at the World Championship.
