I saw that your shooter was jammed, so your actions made sense. Nonetheless, it appeared to be one of the most anthropomorphic actions that I have seen a robot do in a long time.
I can confirm that this was completely unintentional. We had a disk jam at the beginning of the autonomous period, so when tele-op started, the operator and I were trying to jar it loose. The sporadic driving and consequential random firing of the disks were just attempts of getting the disk out of the shooter. The fact that the first one nailed 2342, and the second one came close was purely accidental. There was surely no malicious intent involved.
