Go to Post I'm absolutely certain there are simpler ways of accomplish the same things. I'm simply not the best that FIRST has to offer in this regard and part of what drives me to keep going is the desire to get better at achieving an elegant solution with as few superfluous processes as possible. - Madison [more]

Our first trip to worlds was largely because our partners having the fastest minibots. (Thanks 71 & 48). My recollection is the point adjustment rule was added after that game. So my completely uneducated opinion is the GDC will not change the tower strength.
I disagree. This game is different in that we're counting down to zero from an arbitrary starting number. In the other games, the idea was to balance the relative value of different tasks. I could see them changing the values for this year's game if they want to keep things interesting at the end of the matches.
