Bold or stupid.... we'll find out.

Funny though... Last year it seemed like FIRST was trying to force teams to cooperate with that whole lifting-bonus thing. In my opinion it was too overt & didn't work out.

This year I think they are being stealthy, and making us cooperate by giving us a problem that's too hard for one team to "do everything" on. This way teams "need" to cooperate to get high points. eg: three robots, two balls. Eg: shooters & knockers working together. (Boy that sounds bad
