Ball or Bar

[KenWittlief]

Jessica has a good point

during the qualifying rounds getting high scores on both sides will be important

but during the elimination rounds, winning is (almost) everything - and for these rounds the top seeding teams get to choose their alliance partners

so if you dont think you can build a complex machine that will place you high in the qualification rounds

you might want to focus on building the perfect alliance machine, that will complement the ones who are most likely to win those top 8 spots.

Its all about strategery! :^)
