Re: Alliance Communication

Took a while for this post to come up.
It's true, your alliance partners are literally your opponents this year. Most will eventually (once or twice) get in your way, accidentally delay you, get you stuck near the landfill, and knock over your own stacks.

I thought that a strategy booklet would be a viable concept this year. This book could include 10 or so strategies that your team could do. This doesn't have to just be "getting totes" or "getting bins". It would map all viable routes that your team could take during the game, and for each strategy, it would display where they should not place totes to ensure that you remain able to continue your planned strategy and not be obstructed.

Having 6 or so auto modes is also mandatory unless you're doing something very unique completely out of everyone's way.
