I honestly think sometimes we get a little TOO GP around FIRST. I agree with the above few posts, spank em on the field...but the pits are not a place for compeition
what i meant by exploiting a strategy or design flaw was more along the lines of bumping a robot with a poor claw in order to make them drop their tube. or playing extreme defense against an alliance that is only likely to score a few tubes. an example of strategy exploitation might be dropping a square near a robot which has a circle and a square in place in the last 20 seconds, in hope that they will take it and not consider going to get a triangle to complete their logo.

the same thing as throwing a "spitball"
