Re: Do you think FIRST should extend the autonomous time

My suggestion (probably for IRI, since it is too late now for FIRST) is the following:

1) Additional points for an assist during Auton. This was attempted at 10K Lakes where the 2nd ball was pushed forward by the non-shooting bot to feed it into the intake of the shooting bot that had already advanced into the blue zone. The intake didn't didn't take-in, unfortunately. It would require more than the 2nd bot to be just touching the ball. It would have to at least herd it or carry it.

2) More points for CATCH. This is always a crowd pleaser, and much more difficult than the TRUSS, so it should be worth more points than a TRUSS.
