I think 'simple' is a relative term. We have an idea that is 'simple' in the sense that it only requires 1 or 2 moving parts to accomplish. I certainly don't think it will be simple to build to work reliably, especially for a team that has a poor track record with past arms. If we go for it I think we will be foregoing shooting and ground pick up to have any chance of success.

A consistent 30+ points sounds very appealing even if that's all we'll do. This is my 10th year in FIRST and I've only been involved with a robot that can score 30+ a match twice. That kind of score makes you an alliance captain at most regionals.
