my point is that it would be nice for the number one seeded robot from team 180 to participate in some way in the championship. since having drivers from another school control the robot is not legal, perhaps having the robot as the placebo or as a second placebo or something might be legal.
is this possible? or is any type of situation like this possible?

The Placebo is not used in the double Elimination tournment at the Championship. The team (alliance) of two teams are not replaced if one breaks down. Pick your alliance well.
Also the placebo is a "substitute" and can win no points. It is there to be fair to the other team, and also to have the points earned by the opposing team. The drivers are from a school (469).
