Committing to designing a robot that SOLELY climbs and dumps is a much bigger commitment than designing one that picks up off the ground

I couldn't agree more. People are upset about FIRST changing the rules at the last minute and having it affect their robots and strategy. This is awful, I agree. But why turn around and do the same to someone else?

Where's the GP in that?

I liked the idea of adding more discs on the field in the beginning though. That would certainly help a bit.
