Re: Do you purposely not score in auto mode?

We zoom back and forth to rock our arm tower into place. The arm tower starts on an angle so we can fit within four feet.

Because of the way our tower is positioned between our lifting platforms, it isn't even physically possible for us to hold onto a ring at the start of the match. The closest thing to it would be starting with the ring at the bumper, but we didn't have time to develop a more complex autonomous mode that could go forward, back up, forward again to pick up the ring, and then score.

EDIT: See John Wanninger's post above too
