Re: 301 points! and could have done more

Snipped from Libbys comment:

".....this thread is full of comments that this particular match's gameplay was astonishingly different from the rest of the season across the country."

About the only thing that was "astonishingly different" is that 6 bots went back in the bag fairly undamaged by taking the assumptions of many participants and non-participants alike of that designed in "Battle Bots" element out of the game. (I do not remember the GDC ever going over that defense angle in the game release, nor in the Kick Off videos, or the Game Animation, does any robot make contact...Well except for poor lil' Dozer getting smashed by that Big Ball so we would learn to make our Robots Robust!

Actually, Final-Match 2 was about as close to the Animation Video as possible, or we will probably see all year.....And you must admit, our Team 60 "The Thighmaster of War" or as we call her "Suzanne"...Looks a whole lot like poor little Dozer, on steroids pumped up for Aerial Assist...without the eyes and the blade of course).

And, absolutely nowhere do the words "must play a defensive strategy" appear in the rules. So, you play your game strategy, we are free to play ours.

As long as neither of us violate the published RULE SET.
