Thumbs up The Best Idea Ever

So i thought of the best idea ever, but then i thought that there must be something wrong with it becuse it hasn't been used before and i've never heard of the idea. This would work for any competition with the 2 vs. 2 scenario.

Couldn't u just build a big unfolding wall and completely block out the opponents human players' field of vision? i can't find a rule against it and i can't think what a huma player can do about it, they could try and use there robot to move yours out of the way, but how would they know which way they are going, they can't see their bot?

And without seeing your bot it is extremely hard to pick up boxes or to know what zone your robot is in or if it is on top of the bridge none-the-less. And if your robot set up the wall than your alliance would have there way with the rest of the field and be able to move buckets and gain king of the hill points without resistance!

the wall would just be 12 feet wide to cover that side of the human player station and be like five feet tall to cover the entire plexiglass veiwing surface. they can't look around it cause then they get DQ'd for intentionally stepping out of the human player box and they can't bring a ladder or anything because the control station has to be on the mount they give u for it, which is only like 3 or 4 feet high or so.

If this idea really doesn't work, or if there are some rules against it, i would really like to know!

please give me your ideas, and if it proves this idea is as perfect as i believe it is now, it was my idea remember... MY IDEA... MATT from team 279's IDEA... lol
