Heh, you're completely right. Our bot doesn't even grab goals. It was meant to, but after we came in at over 40 lbs. overweight, we had to redesign. Our robot turned into a superfast, and super powerful bot that played lot's of defense and some offense. We started off by just running out and pushing the goals around, and then even other robots. We kept the other bots off the balls and kept the goals away. In the end, we wound up in 9th seed at NYC. Then, we moved up to 7th from the other teams picking, and picked a great alliance, and made it al the way to the semi-finals. For a rookie team at their second competition, not bad. I think we completely surprised a lot of teams, and even proved that lexan does break.
