Re: Letting robots on top vs getting on top of robots

Any more than that and it is a waste and will result in very lopsided matches. I think that I would be more than happy to face an alliance with two ramp teams and one moderate scoring team.
I respectfully disagree. A system to score on the lower rung can be very simple and light. And the ramps shouldn't have to weigh more than 10ish lbs each, I think. I realize that's a good chunk of weight, but you'd still have a good amount to play with for other systems.
