Re: Were to store practice bot at regional?

I've read this whole thread. What nobody has mentioned yet is that this whole thread is just more reinforcement for the idea that bagging is almost pointless and should just go away. Basically, to be both competitive and legal, you have to have a practice robot AND a separate set of spares. For many items this year, that's actually what we did. That gets expensive fast. We can't afford to sustain this kind of expense every year.

Do away with practice bots, either by specifically disallowing them or by ditching the bag. Problems solved. The build season hasn't truly been 6 weeks since over half a decade ago.
