900 did the same thing. they were playing with ramps and a scoring mechanism thursday but they ended up having to pull everything off to fit in under weight. this is much more understandable than building a purely defensive/potentially damaging robot. i don't understand how that is educational, rewarding or even enjoyable. you don't build anything that complicated, you don't score points and you don't really even have a chance to succeed. maybe they have fun ripping apart other people's hard work?
