Re: Question of the Week!!! (9/19/04)

One of the most important elements in a game has to be gracious professionalism. This past season and the season before that there was 1 goal that could score big points. The problem was that the goal was placed right in the center of the field and there was a squeeze if 2 or more bots were there, either on top of the hill or on the bar. Thus you could have had bots either A.) wrestling with another bot or B.) Trying to lift a robot off the bar and onto the ground. Those 2 situations are dangerous for a robot and could bring about damage. So therefor, gracious professionalism in my humble opinion was tinkered with to a degree. The solution, make multiple middle point goals such as the 2X multiplier from the past season and not put in an 'end of match' fight for 50 points.
