Re: Are The Penalties Too High?
Absolutely.

The penalties are too great in magnitude for scores that are to low. They are too easy to incur.

I disagreed with Andy Baker and Dave Lavery because this has gone beyond the "just avoid the penalties". I maintain that it is nearily impossible to not risk penalties and still have a competitive robot or strategy.
