Re: Human Players and the Game

I'd have to agree with you. There are those who won't, but humans working with robots is a real situation.

I think the prime example was 2004. All points scored in the goals were scored by a human. Robots could feed the human, put a doubler on the goals, or hang from the bar. Robots could also arrange to increase the number of balls sooner than normal.

2009 is also a very good example. I want to say that at least half the points in any given match were scored by the humans, but I'm probably overestimating.
