Sucks to be 190 and 233 I guess.


Be careful to paint both teams with the same brush stroke. Mark made a specific description of 190's deployment which made Paul think it's illegal, namely the creation of potential energy by the downward movement along the track. From my understanding, Pink's ramp only goes upward, meaning the track (and thus the hostbot) would not be contributing any energy.
