My drive team was far less comfortable loading without a ramp. We tried it in some of our matches - it didn't work. We wasted totes 148 could have used for Robin.
In the end, we made a decision, as an alliance, not to HP load. Our job was: Burgle, get the cans in a good place, move the auton stack to the wall, and get out of the way. We all agreed that it would be the best role for us, and we executed as best we could.
We had a fantastic time getting to work with and learn from our partners - they're class act teams with amazing programs, and hopefully we'll be able to to capture a fraction of their magic to use from here on out.

First of all congratulations on advancing to the Einstein Semifinals. The real question here is did Robin use all the totes from the human player station? If they did then I agree, but if there were some totes leftover that weren't utilized, would there have been any negatives from attempting to score any extra totes that Robin didn't use?
