Yes, this is one of the strategies that we're likely to use. I think that other alliances would appreciate the extra points there.

Did you know you can start the match already touching the tote? It has to be completely supported by the floor, but you can already be attached when you setup...

I don't think I made this clear at all

This feature will be necessary if we decide to try to stack totes during autonomous. I realize that we can start the game by simply picking up a tote that we had placed in the robot's arms, but if we decide to do anything more ambitious, we have the capability of doing so. Which would be nice.
