Re: [FTC]: Warning about Exclusively-Defensive Robots(and how to build one)
In the finals of NYC/LI championship yesterday, team 5069 (Robogamers) were quite aggressive in the endgame, repeatedly ramming our robot when we lifted our linear slide preparing to drop ball in the center goal. In the end, our robot tipped over. No penalties were given.

I can't say I wasn't angry, but I have to agree that the rules allow that.
For the superregionals, we are certainly making our robot A LOT heavier.
