Re: Feeding VS. Throwing tubes into Play?

I think throwing the game pieces into play could have a major advantage in saving time by not having the robot come all the way back across the field to the feeder slot to retrieve a game piece. Of course their are issues such as picking it up, throwing it accurately and such. But if one were to really practice this tactic it could prove to be a definite time saving advantage.
