I think, perhaps, the most effective robot will be a 'Superman' robot. one that can multitask. perhaps one that can hold on to a goal or two WHILE putting balls into it. Then again, we may want a robot that can defend itself against a 'bully' bot. We don't exactly know what we're going to be up against.

An interesting idea: Maybe a MODULAR robot? one that can be quickly (like in 30 or less seconds) be configured to perform any (or more than one) of the required tasks in a match based on what the other team's robot can do.

The genius in the game this year is that the game is very simple, so any number of interesting configurations can come out of it. I'm very excited to see what other teams (and my own) come up with. It's going to be an interesting year.
