I know in our team, we have debated this greatly, and still are split. anything you can add to this debate would be much appreciated.

Yes, I've thought about this multiple ways.
My immediate thought after kickoff was to scoot under and send a grappling hook up to level 3, and "ride the elevator up". Until I read the rules, and realized you have to touch each level in order. Then I thought, climbing from the inside might be easier, if you depend on gravity to lean you into the climb. But after wrestling with it a bit, it would seem like it might be easier to climb from the outside, where the pyramid is somewhat underneath you.
Has anyone give thought to building a ramp bot to assist others in climbing? They show one in the video, but I'm very unclear on how that would affect the climbing sequence rule.
