Re: Human players first move

assuming a heavy offense strategy at least one human player should IMO throw a white circle onto the field. At the begging of the match the field will be in general the most clear and open so the circle will have a path to roll which when it does can make the full length of the field. One robot scores that while the other two get triangles and squares.

Definitely agree with loading the field up with tubes if the opposing alliance can't pick up off of the floor. Pit scouting to find out the opposing robot capabilities will be important this year.

I understand each match will be different but I think that is not too early to discuss the technique of tube distribution in general.
