Re: Robot ideas
Although my team has not decided to toss lifters/ramps out all together, we feel that scoring tubes will be a safer bet.

The idea of counting on other robots is just too dangerous. What if a only one alliance member can climb your ramp, and that robot breaks down? You won't be able to score at all!

If I was designing a ramp, I would make it adjustable (user specified angle) and then pre-set it before the match.
