Re: pic: Game hint

To follow up on the hint not really affecting anything outside of autonomous mode, I agree.

I really think that this hint won't affect the game for a lot of teams. If you think of Aim High and all the emphasis on the green light, many teams just used set angles and others positions where they knew they could make a goal.
For the Rack and Roll game the use of the green light again, could be avoided by teams who decided to just take a shot at dead reckoning. And others, didn't bother at an autonomous mode because the work on the camera would just be too much to handle.

Of course if the sensor, universal remote, or whatever crazy contraption that can help you find every goal imaginable would help during the game for certain advantages but in the end thats a lot of hype for something that only affects one aspect of the game (if it does happen to affect only autonomous mode that is).
