Re: IRI - 4th Alliance Team?

Completely for and one word summarizes it. Strategy.

Of course I would like it (ONLY if I was the higher seeded alliance) if I got to switch bots after the other team similar to re-placing the robots last year. It would make for a MUCH more interesting match up and would add an "X-FACTOR" to every game. Even with the current rules, you are allotted a lot of strategy and no matter what, I think that this will be the beginning of an awesome series of matches in the future.

EDIT: I think that it should not be referenced as the "back-up" robot. Travis has a good point and example (148). It should be a 4th robot. IF strategy dictates in matches, like I hope it does, teams would be switching bots every other/few match(es) giving some sense of "mystery" to the game.
