I've seen alot of team do the following
in the Teleoperated Period
- Drive forward and knock their ball off the overpass
- Continue Driving forward having the ball land behind them
- Pause for a second, apperantly considering going back to get the trackball
- Progressing in the counter-clockwise direction without picking up the trackball.
so some questions:
As there is no way of getting points for hurdling the ball when removing it (it needs to cross a lane marker first), team that store the trackball on themselves would have an advantage if they even tried to have the ball fall on them, right?
As you are allowed to move anywhere within a quadrant - wouldn't you want to turn around and go get your trackball instead of doing a whole lap and losing a hurdle?
why isn't this happening? Veterans from the 1st and 2nd week regionals... please enlighten me!
thanks!
