If your robot this year ends up with any kind of swinging chute or arm, then you could probably use that to effectively shift the center of gravity.
Personally, I want to take all the human aspects out of the balancing. The operators are facing them head on, not to the side of the board. So my plan is to get all the alliance members up and tell them to drop all controls so the software can do its work.
