I totally agree. We were like 129.99999999999(repeatingHAHA) and we did weight reduction before we added things, such as our goal grabber we added at MWR.(I think it was MWR.) It is something that is a challenge outside the game itself. We all need to just deal with it. (meant nicely)

I also agree with that...I mean come on if the game has like 10 different things to do there will be teams that want to do it all. And if there are more motors that would take away weight to use for stuff to play the game. If the game doesn't really require that much "extra" parts, but more motors I think it should stay the same, just to make things more challenging.
