I fear for bin raisers.

Personaly, if I were behind the controls and I saw a opposing bot trying to mess with my score like that, I'd try to stop him. That probably means ramming him, either to convince him to do something else or to tip him over if he doesn't stop. A few 'warning' taps, then I'd start hitting hard.

I don't want to see broken bots anymore then anyone else (possibly less then some), but if your pulling a strategy that puts your CG that high up your asking to get rammed. After all, you're controling a lot of points, you're probably immobile and very vulnerable. Who wouldn't go after you?

The real strong bots will figure out a way to keep from being tipped. Thats what I'm eager to see.
