To writchie: Thanks! That makes alot of sense but I suppose it doesn't change anything. It looks like FIRST wants to make sure that this will be a slippery game with luck involved.
Like the real world, luck is always an element. I suspect, however, that luck
will be more involved with miraculous "shots" in the last 20 seconds by human
players. Changing the physics of the game, IMHO, makes it more a matter of
engineering than luck. As always, expect to see some amazing bots.
