Re: Can a spybot start with a boulder?

Re: Value of defense
Don't get me wrong, I agree it is rarely the optimum usage of an alliance to do everything yourself and carry your alliance partners, and those top teams recognize that too.
I'm merely stating...

Re: Value of defense
As someone who comes from the region that 1114, 2056, 1241, 610, and many more call home:

Re: Problems driving straight.
I'd be inclined to agree. I could also see a possibility for a performance difference between hard floors like tile or concrete and softer ones like carpet. I would think the locked roller side...

Re: Stress testing a Rhino
I can't speak to the Rhino units in particular, but the belts on them look awfully similar to some belts made by Brecoflex that my old team used for several years. They were expensive (read:...

Re: 1114's HARPOONS
My guess is that the Curie alliance knows that they're likely OK coming out of this match due to the lead they have on 1671/1678/118's average, but also know that the finals is against the same...

Re: 1114's HARPOONS
We may be much more likely to see it now with 1114's SideSwipe-mounted canburglar all twisted up after that last match.

Re: Einstein Field
Certainly not. I was there in Atlanta watching in 2010 when 177 was in the middle of that streak.
