As Team 23's cannon operator, i just want to point out, in probably Team 23's unique case, that the cannon can be shot from anywhere reasonable on the field. For example, all i need to do is drop the cannon 2-3 degrees and back up 5 feet. In these few matches though, as a team we seemed more concerned with testing the preset codes such as the kinect hybrid, and one touch auto shooting from predetermined spots on the field for our rookie programmers (and by rookie i mean no past coding experience).

With that said, i do agree with you. Team 23 will be headed to WPI and our drive team is expecting to see plenty of defense and will be required to shoot from more than against the fender.
