This isn't our design in the slightest - I just thought it would be a neat idea. Hence this thread's title: "3 robots designs I hope to see this season"
It's something I'd like to see this season A different strategy that I've never heard about before - maybe it's for a reason, though.

So really you wish to see the inevitable heartbreak of another team rather than going through it yourself?

I could go on and on. Perhaps you should put down the shovel rather than keep digging; we'll just let this one slide .

Oops, I should have checked. [R08], see line A in the blue box. This is intended to interfere with vision, so it's a violation.

Then you throw in [G07]...

Haha, alright then.

On another note that is in full compliance with the rules (I hope, lol) is involving two robots working together to score. I've seen a number of people here talking about robots sitting in their alley and feeding the basketballs to their scoring side of the field. It would be impressive if the feeding robot could directly receive basketballs to a scoring ally robot, as in, the receiving robot has some way to receive basketballs in the top of their robot that are fed from the feederbot. This way, the only possibility for the opposing alliance to steal basketballs is from missed shots. Just another idea (even if more realistic) to throw out there.
I would also like to see the inbounders feeding basketballs to their robot this way in the last 30 seconds.

Something like this.

Gotcha, I missed [R08] before. Thanks ^^

Apparently I need to be more obvious with rule-based quotes. I said this an hour ago.

For whatever reason, I misread that as [G08] and that rule was not applicable to a giant blanket. Sorry about that - you were indeed correct.
