Re: Blocking the lane with an ubertube in autonomous
I started this thread because I observed a strategy that I thought was illegal, but after reading the rules I saw that it was not. Perhaps the GDC intended it otherwise, but they were pretty specific in their rules and clearly did not address this.
We have a slot feeder. After watching this strategy I didn't consider that they should change the rules for me. I starting thinking about what we need to do to counter that strategy. Defense has always been part of the game, frequently limited to different degrees, but the one year that everyone was on the same team with no defense was IMHO the worst game that we've had. The game is not just to design a robot to perform a task; it is to design a robot to perform a task with other robots either helping you or hindering you. That is part of the requirement. It has nothing to do with gracious professionalism.
