Observation based on the general styles of claws, though it will be very hard for ours. The only reliable floor picker not using a wall I saw in the Suffield Shakedown stream was 88 in the video here at 1:30ish.

Most claws I saw (provided the trend continues) are going to find a hard time picking unless it's at the walls, or possibly at the poles.

Addendum: most of the tubes found on the floor that try to be picked up are from botched high-row hangs or zealous feeders who throw the tubes in.

New point: throwing in tubes will be a bad idea unless you have a floor-picker who is reliable.


Another finding for my team: let's paint the logo BACKWARDS on our driver station.
