Go to Post Gracious Professionalism is a compass, not a set of calipers. It should be used to guide what you do rather than to measure it. - Alan Anderson [more]

Early attempts on the actual FRC field will cause robot wheels to slip. Later attempts to 'race' the opponents will cause robot momentum to move the robot too far. So [G13] is inevitable in making the attempt for a 2-ball autonomous, even with a well-refined autonomous, IMO.

It's easy to make up 5 points of fouls for grazing the auto line, but not so easy if contact is made with the opponents. So the risk/reward is there to 'race' the opponent and to attempt the 2-ball before the robot is 100% perfect.
