I've seen several robots that look like they were designed to be 50pt climber/dumpers... but only a few of them actually achieve the goal. Climbing is difficult... climbing quickly even more difficult. Once teams see you get up the pyramid for 50 pts, you can bet they'll be playing some defense against you! If the slow you down while you're retrieving the colored discs so you only have 45 seconds to climb, can you still make it up there? We saw several robots at LSR that could at least climb for 30... but if they were delayed at all, they didn't make it. At least our robot can go from floor to dumping in 20 seconds! (although we plan for 30, just in case)
