Yeah that rings a bell.
When you really think about it, having a robot go for the one-pointers has a lot of advantages. Not only is it simpler, but the robot can be made much lighter and faster. You guys were just flying down the field it seemed! And also I'm sure you guys got done with the bot sooner than some of the teams with more complex bots which is a big advantage.
