From what I've seen at a week 1 competition, the totes almost always landed on their edges no matter what station they came from, presuming that only gravity was changing the projectile's path. It is important to make sure that your robot has a way of preventing this from happening. I feel that this design is very much intentional from the GDC and throws another wrench into the works.
