Re: IRI (CONTEMPLATED) Rule Changes

Here's an idea... How about doing logos vertically...
A logo would be worth 3+2+1 X 2 or 12 points per logo
You could have 6 logos or 72 points total
Uber tubes would score in autonomous the normal way but during teleop they would double the entire logo again.... so a logo with an ubertube would add another 12 points if on a vertical logo...

If a logo had 2 ubertubes it would be worth 2 X 2 X 12 or 48 points
if a logo had 3 ubertubes it would be worth 2 X 2 X 2 X 12 or 72 points

This would give a possible score of 126 for a rack....(with 3 high ubertubes in autonomous)

Presently the max score is 108 for a full rack... this would raise the full rack score to 126 AND give the lower tubes more value at the same time because they would be necessary for making a logo.

Another completly different approach COULD be to have the ubertubes double the entire logo they are on... but i think this is too many points. Given the rules as they are for logos... a logo doubling ubertube idea would mean that a logo on the top with 3 ubertubes would be worth 108 points by itself... this is too much .... so this wouldn't work...I suppose you could allow only a single doubling of a logo. no matter how many ubertubes were there... but this would net 96 additional points available from 2 high logos doubled and 1 middle doubled...

Just ideas....
