Re: Abandoning Floor Loading

We're designing the mechanism to do both since we think we've found a fairly elegant solution for both -- the team was split either way. We want the capability for both since stealing the opposition's tube from the floor significantly increases immediate gains in score differential compared to not even having the capability to pick up from the floor.

However, doing both isn't essential to our overall strategy. Doing one or the other IS essential.
