Problem solved...

There the problem lies in communication. While running a mockup we noticed that properly coordinating to balance *quickly* requires effective communication, because you don't know how far each robot has to move to balance with each other, and if you do you have to communicate it with the other team. Since you'll be trying to align the robots while looking at them from the drivers' stations, that's not the easiest thing to do in the frantic last thirty seconds. Then again, I could be wrong, but we won't know until we're playing against another bot.
