Re: Does anyone else think this game will not be as good as I imagine it might be?

I have to say I love this years game. I have been around for 12 years.

We can hit other robots and if we tip them over it will not be or fault as long as we hit them under the 8 1/2 " limit. this is big for us. We love to push other robots

a picture of what we can look forward to. because if you do not want to score you can hit and hit some more. we will see a lot of robot parts on the floor.

The best thing is if you do fall over you can be pushed up the ramp to score points.

for those how are thinking about putting something down on the rug to hold themselves down look at this

now see what happen to them

Then I think we have some plans that might look like this

I think the most of the scoring will be in the auto mode. then it we be defence

for those who can remember the auto mode for this year was very important

So let the fun begin
