I'm with Chris

I agree with Chris with regards to the 2000 game. The 2000 game had interaction, blocking, fighting for position just like this game. However, two major differences: (1) goal in 2000 was fixed and each team had their own goal, but this year goal position is key and much more fighting/tugging will occur and (2) your robot can score for the other team (against its will).

I think FIRST attempted to make the game like 1999 (position of puck/goal), 2000 (balls in goals), and 2001 (moveable goals & robots position scoring). Also, it looks like they tried to make it easier for broken down robots to score (4 dead robots 60 QP for the coin toss winner).

As a result, some other "bad" aspects have come in to play.

We must make our comments and hope FIRST can ammend some of the not-so-good rules.
