Making agreements to throw a match for a spare part would kill a team. They wouldn't get any kind of award for years if the judges ever heard about it. More than likely they would be asked to leave for just suggesting it.
Since I haven't seen any 8 stacks and few 4 stacks survive I don't even know why this topic is being debated. Its a waste of time. There is no problem with teams making this kind of agreement. I said that making such agreements not to knock over stacks or to allow everyone on the ramp would would be legal and actually encouraged by FIRST. Alot of people posted arguements against me earlier in the season because I thought rampdoms would be a effective bot. Many of you argued rampdoms killed scores and stackers were better because they only increased scores. So if an agreement not to knock down stacks also increased both teams scores then why is it wrong?
I hadn't posted until today because I didn't see any indication teams were making unscrupulous agreements and thought this whole thread was a waste. But after 4 threads and hundreds of replies I had to throw in my 2 cents.
