Re: The ultimate game breaker bot.
Carrying is when the ball is in contact with your robot when it is not on the feild. I would think that since the returning balls are midair that it would be considered carrying. Even if your scoring goals each time you then have a
1pt penalty. The only plus side is the 2pts you get as soon as the game ends and up to eight if the other robots can attatch to you. But the other team can do the same. But you would probally get a red card before the end of the match.
You also have that problem with the six balls the opposing alliance get at the begining. Unless your alliance can quickly get control of all twelve balls you will either have to abandon your offensive position (which may not be a problem) or leave the midefeild unapposed.
But even with the penalties, you could have your alliance try to stall the other bots so they can't get up onto the tower in time*. Plug the tunnel, park in front of the side of the tower. Or maybe even park on the platform**.
A very good idea. But probally illigal.
*You can mess with other robots during the finale, but you can't if they are in contact with the tower.
**Not sure about this one. I'll assume no in the name of Gracious Professionalism.
