Re: Value & Credibility of 4th robots on an Alliance
There are about 120 high schoolers on my robotics team, maybe about 20 or so mentors.

There are only 4 members of my team on the field actively participating during a match - 2 drivers, 1 coach, 1 human player. When 868 wins an event, the entire team wins. Not just the driver, not just the coach, not just the human player. The 136 people not driving the robot had a hand in that victory, the team wins.

The 4th robot on an alliance might not be on the field, but I can assure you that the rest of that team is providing support and working just as hard towards the alliance victory as the people on the robotics team that aren't the drive team.
