Re: Shooting Vs. Time hanging 30

Our analysis on kickoff was:

A 30-second climb with 20 point dump is acceptable.
A 20-second climb with 20 point dump is good.
A 10-second climb with 20 point dump is great.

A 30-second climb with no dump is okay-ish.
A 20-second climb with no dump is acceptable.
A 10-second climb with no dump is good.

As a great hanger in 2010, it didn't occur to us until reading CD later that other people wouldn't be clambering for a climb. Our specific capabilities lend themselves more to climbing than autonomous programming -- something we're working on, of course, because we always want to be better than we are -- so as far as priorities we are tending in that direction even though skill-independent strategy leans us the other way.
