The difference in play is so striking that I think it will be hard to find informative designs from that year.
I believe this constitutes 90% of why there is a divider and limited interaction between alliances. Defense made 2003 a game of just who can push totes around the best and stay on the pyramid platform.

While in the 15 seasons I have been around I like to say not a whole lot has changed when it comes to the robots, I believe that teams will perform much better with totes than they did in 2003.

My rookie year was 2001 and in my 4 years as a student I could not stand 2001 and 2003. Strangely I do not feel all that bad about this years game and am optimistic that stacking will look pretty cool and a decent amount of teams will be able to interact.
