took at what simbotics did in logomotion, 2011. They would hang their uber tube and their partner's. I believe I saw them hang all 3, but I could be mistaken. A team on einstein that year hung their partner's tube as well. It was crazy and ingenius because a lot of teams had trouble with autonomous that year (at the regional I went to and galileo), us included for the first few matches. But, this year autonomous mode is only 10 seconds, so it will be more difficult, but not impossible.
