IMHO:
I just don't like the idea of turning this into a "battle bots" competition. Playing defense is one thing but to be going into a competition with the intent to "take out" opponents is a whole different perspective.

We built our robot very strong knowing that big hits happen, but we also focus on playing the game not destroying the competition.

Additionally, if you are successful in the competition, you may find it difficult finding alliance members in the finals.

What was the phrase? Oh yeah, Gracious Professionalism.
