I have to disagree, if a team has a way to balance three robots on the bridge that is extremely successful, it would be in their best interest to keep that a secret. Remember now this is still a competition. And if said team that has the good idea decides to use that in a competition, then I'm sure they will pick the teams that can be used in with idea and they can let the cat out of the bag and inform the other teams in your alliance when it counts.
