: : May I further suggest that we come up with common terminology for various roles in the game? For example we have been refering to robots that control the bridge position as "gatekeepers" and robots that move objects around the field as "tugs". We could say that a robot that goes under the bar can "limbo" while one that goes over can "hurdle". I don't think we've come up with terms for robots that pick up balls or balance the bridge yet [...]

As far as I know, our team has been using the term "gatekeeper" as well. We've been calling stuff that picks up balls with rollers a "grace" mechanism (because of our bot last year, name Grace Hopper, or HopBot for short).
