Than again, I have been known to miss some ingenious stuff in bots that just seemed to work for other teams. (2010 climbers, 2008 shooters/collectors, 2012 stingers...)

And to add to that, ideas that my team and others have been seen to be out of compliance with the rules. I foresee alot of rule changing within this years manual.

Also, there is a possibility that after the first competitions when bots fall off they may change the rules, or does the people who make the rules intend this to happen or oblivious to it?
