My team score the two highest scores during qualifying play with matches of 280 and 230. We achieved this by HP stacks of 5, 3 robots on top and not clearing the opponents area. We discover that blocking a team from a stack and getting to the top is a good strategy. No agreements were made. A handshake, telling a team good luck, asking an opponent about their robot(considering they are willing to tell), and showing your robot to the opponent are acceptable actions while waiting, not planning collusion strategies. We barely made alliance strategy before going on the field tell HP stacks with hand signals and yelling loudly in the drivers stations. Our team chose not to sign and put up the petition at LSR deciding to allow teams whatever choice they wished. I am glad that our choice to not display the petition did not limit us from becoming allianced with great teams from Huntsville, Alabama, and from Killeen, Texas.
