Re: IRI - 4th Alliance Team?

Obviously there a lot of pros and cons concerning the 4th alliance team but the good thing i see about a 4th alliance team is that it's an extra set of eyes. I know that most teams listen to only their own coach, but it's a nice advantage to have one person watching everything going on the field and doesn't prioritize a specific robot during the match, but instead looks for things that can be applied for the greater good of the alliance as a whole. (not saying that teams only try to benefit themselves, but i hope you guys get what im trying to say)

the idea of making all teams play a match if picked seems fair, but if the 4th team would rather let the other team(s) play matches instead for strategy, then I don't see why they shouldn't be allowed to do that.

Overall it's nice to have a 4th alliance because you're actually given an option.
