Was there more parity at Peachtree than other regionals this year with most of the robots being closer to some threshold in overall ability? Or, is this years game not rewarding design/capability as much as in years past? So many questions and so little knowledge... yes, we are a rookie team!
It could be that teams are playing the game a little smarter. I know of a couple matches that we played in where we just stopped scoring moon rocks to avoid the loss of "Empty Cells" in the next match.
