This could work in Elims. Due to how the finals matches work, you could agree to do this in both matches, boosting you and your partner's averages. Since you agree twice, you get those points twice. All the teams will end up doing this because it leaves them higher scoring by doing it.

Personally, I would have a designated guard robot to protect the noodles for the last few seconds. that robot would sit with the noodles in front of it. If you sense foul play, simply drive forwards. The other robots on you alliance would be unable to go against the agreement because the noodles are protected.

You could also agree that if the other alliance touches the noodles after entering play, the deal is off. Both teams get 10+ points for them being in barrels or landfill, etc.
