Has anyone seen 2474's pickup? It collects both forward and backward. The only issue is that it's a spatula/roller-style pickup, so a nine-disc would be extremely tight for time if you consider that it has to lift the discs up to it's shooter.
But I think with some programming magic and a rapid fire rate, it could be done.
