I think this concept of a "redo card" for robot problems or operator error is a very bad idea. That's what this program is all about, design and build it well, robust, and consistent. It wouldn't be fair to the other teams who did their job.

As others have mentioned:

this is also unfair to the other teams, who successfully beat you, in part because they remembered to tighten every screw, plug in all the batteries, make sure their pneumatics were well built (cough cough my team in 2012 cough cough).

FRC, especially recycle rush, is about having the robot best made for the challenge win, and that includes durability (in my opinion anyways)

Recycle Rush is all about how well you've designed and built your robot, how well you work with your alliances, etc. Less about defense and offence (other than can grabbing). And I feel that you're given enough ways to overcome a mishap or two within the game. (this of course is just my opinion)
