It all adds up for me. There are so many ways to build a robot this year, and some variety in how to get game pieces. We are planning to be able to do the "hard stuff", on our own, to maximize our alliance score. Assuming that our alliance partners will likely need both feeder stations for at least some of our matches, we plan to mainly get totes from the landfill, and make medium stacks with them. Then be able to cap our stacks, and stacks that our partners make, as well. The scoring platforms are relatively long, hopefully we'll not run out of room on them for stacks, but even if we do, it's a nice problem to have, it means you're racking up the points.
