I have to admit, it looks really good. I never would've thought of this being possible, and yet it's in front of my eye.

My instinct keeps telling me to question how well this will work... But I am reluctant to do so after starring at the picture long enough.

It seems like the long forks lay down on the ground and scoope up two big balls, and then both forks raise up to grab the balls vertically. Than by grabbing the two goals, the robot can squeeze the balls on them without much effort.

So... I guess the only comment I have against this design is... It's going to take a while to grab the two balls and two goals, and wait for other robots to grab the two other balls on the goals... Time will tell...

Other then that, Great Job 188!!!
