Gee, I wonder who?
All it takes it to pass the center fo gravity and your bot falls over. I believe someone described balls as "cuddly landmines", and the ramp requires a tip of faith. However, many of the robots who flipped were able to right themselves. The best part about falling off the platform was landing straight into the large goals filled with balls. The balls were cushiony and the PVC piping allowed many robots to bounce back up.
Instead of complaining the game is badly designed, I think of it this way: FIRST knew what they were doing, and created and game with so many intricacies that they knew some would be overlooked. The teams that could ignore or planned for such problems would prove themselves exemplary.
Yeeeah.. That's a good way to look at it.
