So, to paraphrase, this year's game didn't really tax the capabilities of the controller?
I think several others have made similar observations and they too framed their reply in the context of competing and scoring.
It seems apparent to me that FIRST designed Lunacy so that those measures of success could still be achieved by most teams while still planting the seeds of, and providing the foundation for, more creative use of computation.
Personally I feel that, had any team fielded a robot that could juggle 3 orbit balls under software control, that team would have been a winner -- even if their bot never scored a point.
But that's just me. ;-)
