I think we should keep autonomous mode, and we should keep it in the begining of the match. Having it at the end is a real buzzkiller and takes away from the game. And having it in the middle of the game would be just plain frustrating. I think it should start at the begining, last for a specific amount of time, ten seconds sounds good, and then enter control mode. Additionally I like the idea of having the length of the autonomous mode optionaly extendable, with a point incentive.
