Re: Boulder Flow

We've recognized it as a problem, but don't know how it's going to play out. The field is going to seem pretty crowded, especially when all three robots want to use the same defense (e.g. low bar) and back right into the low bar to take a shot from the margin of the outer works. Picking the defenses will also figure into the traffic flow; by placing a defense next to the low bar which is hard/slow for the opposing alliance, traffic flow will get congested. By picking a relatively easy one there, it will relieve traffic flow through the neutral zone for both alliances unless one of the alliance goes to actively defending.
