Re: Starve Them!

[quote=Not2B]OK, good. That's what I thought.

I mean, if you win autonomous and go directly into offense, why bother shooting in auto mode?

To get the bonus points silly!

Don,
I agree strategy would be impacted and that was my point in the first place. Teams developing their strategy would have to decide not only how many shooters will attempt to win auton, but also if they need one of their partners to hold onto the balls in case they lose auton.
It just a different angle - and something to think about "what if". I doubt that it would cause the best auton teams any harm, other than reduce the initial auton score. Teams that can score in auton can obviously also score in Offense periods - so it really only is a matter of time and it also slightly reduces the # of blowouts.
The concept is dependent on seeding vs, elimination matches. I was thinking only about seeding matches and NOT about elimination matches.
