Re: Breaking the Gameplay: One Sided

I was thinking of a sort of "vacuum/pig-bot", that would do nothing but go around the field gobbling up free frisbees. It would deny the pickup bots. Even in Autonomous it could grab the Frisbees near the goals.

In teleop the driver would have to be more aggressive around the feeder stations as they tried to feed the pickup bots.

Then I read the rule that it is a foul violation per disk over 4. The robot could, near the end, dump the entire load into the 1 point slot. I didn't see where you don't get points for the extra Frisbees. But since a fouls is -3 points it would end up losing 2 points per Frisbee.

It could instead fling the entire contents at the 2 and/or 3 point goal hoping some of them would go in to make up for some of the fouls.

Seriously, they have this hole plugged with the 4 Frisbee rule.

An annoyance-bot could do this and end up last on the standings. Would there be any rule to disqualify it?
