Cool Re: Advantage given by succesful autonomous mode

I have faith in FIRST team members across the world that they can co-operate enough to get this done.

And I'll add in it can be any 3 teams scoring on any 3 spider legs but it has to be in auto and all 3 have to be scored.

I am going to agree with both of you on this one. Anything can happen, especially on a FIRST field. Plus I think Dave might want some help to pony up with so many people willing to take the bet ;-)

On A separate note I agree with a lot of whats being said that autonomous isn't as important this year. I think the GDC might have done it for a reason because, as stated, autonomous was quite frequently the deciding point in many matches last year, so it made it harder for rookie teams and other teams that were programing challenged. Sure there was Easy C but from what I am told you can only do so much with that.

This year I think they are trying to find that balance for autonomous mode that makes it neither too important that its a complete deciding factor yet not too minor that teams blow it off.
