[Metalcrafters]

I would like to add that all of this is for "FUN" "SERIOUS" " "COMPETITION” and some seem to forget that all the teams put countless hours of work into their bot to COMPETE, each of us holding great personal pride in our creations. (For most of us this is FUN and SERIOUS)

Now for the COMPETITION side of things! "FUN" & "SERIOUS"

I don't think anyone will argue the value developing a strategy that brings out our bots abilities is important to refine. When it comes to competition we all push hard and strive to be the best. That is what it is all about. Excitement! (FUN) Gracious Professionalism

GP (SERIOUS) is key for all to enjoy this side of competition! Ramming during practice or even during the FINALS and playing defense are two different things that accomplish two different goals. Both give you a REPUTIATION…Good or BAD

All I suggest that once a bot is down (tipped over, disabled...) it accomplishes nothing by ramming it. Defense is great but broken bots make for empty spots on the field…

We learned first hand what it feels like to be rammed continuously while being down. It hurts. Not the bot but our pride. We can fix anything and get back out on the field, but fixing a REPUTATION takes longer both on and off the field!

I wish All Teams the best in the continuous game of LIFE
