[J Flex 188]

what is wrong with having a simple, effective bot that can do one simple thing and do it well? honestly.. if your robot is nothing more than a box on steroids on wheels, does that make it any less qualified than a giant arm or stacker? complexity or function doesnt always mean a good robot. As long as you stick to one simple, primary goal, then your robot can do well. Try and do too much at once, and you end up not really excelling at anything.

Why complain about boxes on wheels. Maybe thats the only type of robots rookie or even experienced teams could build. Its just strategy. If a stacker wants to spend 20 seconds making a stack of 5, while a dozer plows everything out of the way, then so be it.

btw.. in Curie, 188 nearly came back from an EP difference of at least 80 points, until the match was DQ'ed. Im not in favour or against the EP scoring system. It seems to keep the original idea of the game going.. but thats just my opinion.
