Would it be worthwhile to have the other two alliance members hit the disbale button when they are on so they don't accidentally drive off and give us a reputation as a robot dropper.

The strategy when you go with a lifter(or ramp, just call it a +12" bot) is that you want to get picked is my take. So you need to prove in someway that you're an awesome +12" bot. Ideally with a good design, despite alliance drivers errors you should still get a chance to be picked... but lots of teams have (poor) picking processes based entirely on reputation/record so I think you're right that track record is going to be really important.
1817 is going with a +12" bot this year and we have been wondering the same thing about the disable idea. Ramp or lift either way, I expect to see alot of robots try to descore themselves by operator error. I've been wondering how well other teams will take to the idea that we are asking them to disable themselves.
