Re: Pyramid variation

The way the field interacts with robots has always been part of the challenge of the game. The FRC staff can not and should not be expected to build a field around a single teams robot design.
In 2005 I witnessed multiple Scoring pyramids pull up from the floor because of how many tetras were scored on these, that could have never been predicted (229 at FLR for example). Also in 2007 with the rack, who ever would have thought a team would have been able to move that completely, it just isn't foreseeable.
With the way the field has to be designed to be durable and also transportable, I think the designs this year are very well done, being able to give the most unobstructed goal, and climbing ability to all teams evenly.
