Just wondering whether you guys had a plan for that or not.
I feel like the safety aspect that concern teams at other events wouldn't really apply at the Gitchi Gummi. There is not going to be an arms race coming from Minnesota teams, and none of us have burglars that are nearly as dangerous as some of the top tier teams (1678's, 118's, etc., etc.) I'm pretty sure 2169 (my team) has one of the fastest in MN (nothing crazy), and it's fairly easy to stay safe around the things, I'd say they are similar in safety to catapults from last year, or just moving robots in general. Common sense is all it takes to prevent most accidents.

I think our team would enjoy traditional play, but obviously we are pretty biased design wise. Can battles are fun. Definitely excited to see what is decided.
