Re: This year's "game" is a job, not a game

A similar thing happened in the semifinals at Virginia. One alliance consisted of 2 tote bots quickly cycling stacks of 4 or 5 totes, and 1 can topper. When the can topper lost com during one of the matches, everyone essentially began to count them out. Eventually, they managed a 150 point match and actually got in, but it goes to show just how bad loosing one robot for one match can be in this game.
