Re: What do you think of this year's game?

I don't think coop points necessarily have to be luck of the draw. It usually only takes one good balancing robot/driver to complete a double. Look at teams like 67 or 2337, who consistently balanced very well, and seeded well as a result. Teams that had high coop scores often did because they took it upon themselves to represent their alliances on the coop bridge almost every match, and succeeded nearly as often.

I thought the coopertition was one of the best facets of this year's game. As our drive coach said, it was a difficult moral dilemma, trying to both win and keep your word by getting to the bridge on time. That was what made the coopertition points frustrating, but also very intriguing.
