Re: Defensive robots stealing boulders and then...
Partial Quote: "....Drive into a corner with it mumbling: "Precious. My precious."

I think I just woke up everyone in the house by laughing uncontrollably at 2:30 AM. We can store that loose boulder right next to the student who wanted to take the full length wardrobe mirror in the SPY Area to show his drive teams the other end of the field in the reflection (never mind how hard the reversed image driving would be on those drive teams...mirrors are made of glass), now. (My wife heard me laughing uncontrollably a couple of nights ago when I read the Spy Area thread and hit that post....What were you laughing about in the middle of the night she asked?.....It was much more humorous reading about it than telling her about it, but, she laughed also once it hit her just right). She understood me waking her up.
You can certainly "Sit on it until it hatches!" So, you steal it, you care for it until it grows up, you feed it, you nurture it, you clothe it...Then you get to send it to College also, OK?....Too bad you can only control one of those things (Boulders), eh?
And just remember, if you store it on your robot or have it in your possession, you won't be able to bulldoze, steal, or intentionally touch any other boulder (at the same time), without incurring a penalty (Foul....and repeated Fouls concerning Multiple Boulder Possessions equals exactly what?)
It equals possibly watching that Tower of OURS (that your alliance is attacking), on the other end of the field from a distance, as its lights go higher and higher...The absolute wrong direction BTW!)...I personally think I'd be willing to give you one intentionally just to keep you really busy and confused, and then I'd make sure we surrounded your robot with a few more just for fun, as we can always shoot those in the last 20 seconds when you can't touch us without incurring more fouls!
There is a possible downside to that defensive courtyard strategy or three.
