Re: [MCC] Minimum Competitive Concept 2005

My MCC would be a 2WD tank-steer chassis with a hook on a single pivoting 'shoulder' joint. The robot would be human-player loaded and score one tetra at a time.

Scoring tetras underneath the goals was virtually useless in 2005 (1pt vs 3pt, and no "goal ownership") so a robot following this concept would not be competitive at all.
