Jeez.
Kevin, I think it would be a corner climber if it was possible at all. Think about it, as BrendanB said, 2 bars that the other bots use their 10pt climbs on, then it climbs smoothly to the top with 6 CIMs.
It could probably be done, although I'm still fairly skeptical. Also, maybe it's a good thing there weren't any teams that lifted other bots this year, or else GEICO would probably start offering robot insurance.
