Re: Coopertition - Not As Easy As It Looks!

That's a fine idea, except that we may have more traction than you. That leaves you falling of the high end of the bridge and landing upside down. Do you really want to subject your robot to that...

By definition, you then have 2 robots not balancing the alliance bridge and you've cut into your base score. You are in fact increasing their score because they are probably balancing...
