Prepare to be surprised, amazed, awed, and inspired.

Some teams won't design their robot for the endgame bonus. Some robots will fail to perform as designed. Some designs will struggle mightily and just barely manage to earn the bonus for being elevated.

But some teams will have robots that make the task look trivially easy, using elegant mechanisms that cause everyone else to slap their foreheads and wonder why they didn't think of it.
