ok here is how it works on my team. Im a nice guy. Im smart, good looking, a sharp dresser, kind, and most of all modest. but when Im out on the field as a coach most of those go away(I still like to think Im nice). I will tell my drive team to do what it takes to pull off a win(with in GP), or atleast a good finish. The rest of the team knows that at the end of any match they may have to rebuild a robot.

so as far as this is concerned I would not hesitate to tell my driver to lift the ramp, while at the same time tell the coach of the other team that were going to win this and by the time you get the robot back to the pit there will be at least 10 pairs of hands to fix anything thats broke, we will even help you fix it at nationals if it comes to that(btw there is nothing that you cant fix in a fix it window with enough PVC and a heat gun).

edit. P.S. this may seem a little more cutthroat than I am. the line I draw on GP is would I think it was right if a robot did that to my robot so no pinning or destructive defensive play.
