Re: To ramp, or not to ramp?

Ok, I think I need to clarify something here,
At least two people have posted to this thread assuming we're talking about shooting from our alliance plaform into the opponents goal.
To those of you, I encourage you to re-read the arena section of the manual.
You will notice that your alliances scoring goal lies across the field, while your alliances platform is right in front of your driver station. If you wanted to shoot into the opponent's goal, then you'd need to shoot the hoop right behind your robot.

I agree, its a difficult feat, but we want to see if we cant find a way to do it.
(by staying within the rules)
