FIRST Frenzy also had steps, which may be what is shown on the one monitor.
There's very little actual support for it, but I love the idea of flipping the relationship between FTC and FRC teams-- they've had games similar to ours, it's our turn to have one similar to theirs.

It also fits with Frank's comment-- a scaled up version of the Block Party pendulum/ramp/bar assembly would be a sight to behold.
