This is all somewhat subjective anyhow - but as a fan, my favorite auto modes have been,

1) 2003 - Stack Attack - A race to get to the top of the ramp first and knock the stack over was very fun to watch. Many teams had success and made the first 15 seconds very exciting. In fact with that game the first 15 seconds and the last 15 seconds were the best parts.

2) 2006 - Aim High - So much variety in auto modes. Defensive modes that just drove across the field and hoped to hit another bot. Offensive ball dumpers that put 10 balls in the low goal. And for some they could actually score in the high goal.

3) 2008 - Overdrive - Watching the progression in auto modes in each match was so cool. In the first few matches not a lot, but by the elimination rounds on Saturday, teams could do several lines and a few could knock down a ball. Just seeing almost all the bots participate in the hybrid period was cool.

So I don't rate 2008 as the best - but probably the most simplest one to get something done for almost all the teams.
