FMS isn't enough?

I would LOVE if someone organized an off-season event with robot alliances vs. human alliances. It would be amazing, not too dangerous to the humans, and it would answer some of the questions being presented here. Oh, and it'd be very fun to watch

a well coordinated 3 person team could work well together, but if people tried to stack like the robots stacked, they'd be screwed over.
my question is, how would the canburglaring battles go? I wouldnt go near those

Our 2013 full-court shooter bent or broke quite a few of the blocking superstructures teams added to their robots. Trust me, you really don't want to put any part of a human body in front of those shooters!

Take a Frisbee and use it to deflect the Frisbees out of the full court shooter. It doesn't take much. You don't have to block them, just knock the trajectory a little.

Humans can use broom sticks

Humans win every game; they go to a robot and push the main breaker

In my opinion whole point of Robots vs. Humans is "Robots vs. Humans" not "Robots vs. Handicapped Humans".

I recognize that robots would have advantage in some areas and humans in other. However, we can't start picking and choosing to handicap those advantages.

ermmmm... that's extending into the frame perimeter of the other robot and can lead to a red card if it's malicious (which it is in this case)

"Humans can use broom sticks"

that's not part of a person, so I feel like it shouldnt count...

I feel like you'd have to attach it to the person somehow like with duct tape or something. Or tether it.

Gonna remind everyone, your humans have to be under 120 pounds or they don't make weight.

It depends on who the robots are and who the humans are, if it is the number 1 team VS a normal out of shape nerd (like myself) the robots would most likely dominate however if it were a team that had a lot of practice and were in shape then maybe they could win.

You can't apply all rules the same way to humans as it applies to robots. If you do, then yes robots will win as all humans wouldn't pass the inspection. That would defeat the purpose of the debate.
