Re: Starve Them!

The 'ramming' method is a good strategy in working against robots who sit and shoot into the center goal. It cost our alliance, numerous times, the autonomous period. While my teammates and i dislike it, i dont necessarily see it as a bad thing. sometimes, theres no robot for them to ram into, instead they hit the sides at full speed and cause damage to themselves. its a gamble that teams have to be willing to take, these robots were supposed to be built with 'ramming' in mind. thus the opportunity to add bumpers. Also, one team at Annapolis that caused damage, went and worked with that team to fix it in time for their next qualifying. teams should just slow it down so they do minimal damage to themselves and other robots.
