Not only would this eliminate the (questionable) penalty for trying and failing to co-op, but it would have given rise to a new class of "tote catapult" robots during elims! Stacking high? Better be ready to protect them...

I got my wife to pause House of Cards on Saturday night to watch Dallas F2. She felt the same way. The challenge is definitely one of the better ones to design for - but entertaining to watch, it is not. She puts it above 2010 though.
If only there were a legal way to knock over an opponent's stack...
