As stated changes may still be coming. Any insight on what these might be? Are scoring changes a possibility? What would be your reaction if changes in game rules occur after your tournament that might have changed the way you built your robot or your strategy on the field?
Part of the reason that you are not getting very meaningful responses from this thread is likely because you asked a (no offense) somewhat silly question. Basically, if FIRST makes changes to the rules, there are only 2 reactions that people can have: Approve of the change, or disapprove of the change.

If FIRST makes a change that makes the game safer, fairer, or more spectator-friendly, then generally, almost everyone will approve of the change. However if FIRST makes a change to the rules simply to mess with us (see secret endgame thread) then almost everyone will (to put it nicely) generally disapprove of the change. I, just like everyone else, will respond accordingly to whatever rule change is made.

However, I am not about to come up with hypothetical rule changes and then talk about my reaction to those changes, as that is not really insightful either for me or for anyone reading my post. The question "how would football teams respond if the NFL changed a rule?" is pointless, and this thread seems no different than that to me.
