The idea was to create a system that could score 8 points, 2 for getting our robot on top of the platform and 6 more for having two additional robots supported by our 'bot above the plan of the platform (via a ramp extending towards the center of the field). It is thought by many on the team that 8 points would be sufficient to win many matches, if not most.
As for the rollers on the tower structure, we would be accessing the platform from the bump under current designs.
