Re: GLR Update 2004

i would like to pose an interesting possibility. Imagine 1241 and their autonomous action...the positioning under the abll drop and the opening of their net. Than imagine team 33 (The killer bees from Auburn Hills). They have an extremely effective hopper, and also a well functioning autonomous during which they can knock off both multipliers. Imagine these two teams together. Out goes the 1241 net, down come the balls (during autonomous pof course) and 33 heads to the other side of the field. As soon as human control strats they begin sucking up balls. By the time they have finished with the balls from their opponents ball drop 1241 has dumped their load and uncapped the mobil goal. 33 dumps their balls and (since the stationary is of course being filled by 1241's AWESOME human player) begins pumping balls into the mobil goal. 1241 proceeds to cap the stationary and leaves the full mobil goal uncapped. Amazing isnt it? The only way to stop this alliance would be to know exactly what side of the field each robot would start, and then have an autonomous mode that could move BOTH before they completed their functions. Remember the time for the unfold is about 3 secons, and 33 takes 5-6 to knock off the tee balls. Any thoughts?
