Great idea. You have gotten me thinking. We can have our human player directly put balls into our shooter. So we can face our corner, aim the turret, crank it up a little and drop the empty cells in 1 after another and they will all be taken care of. It wouldn't even be 30 seconds. I think it could take us about 7-10 seconds after practicing once or twice. We would have to be defended by a team so that we aren't dumped upon, but that could give us loads of points. Thanks for mentioning that, I'm going to talk to the team about it tomorrow.
