Imagine these two teams together. Out goes the 1241 net, down come the balls (during autonomous pof course) and 33 heads to the other side of the field. As soon as human control strats they begin sucking up balls. By the time they have finished with the balls from their opponents ball drop 1241 has dumped their load and uncapped the mobil goal. 33 dumps their balls and (since the stationary is of course being filled by 1241's AWESOME human player) begins pumping balls into the mobil goal. 1241 proceeds to cap the stationary and leaves the full mobil goal uncapped. Amazing isnt it? The only way to stop this alliance would be to know exactly what side of the field each robot would start, and then have an autonomous mode that could move BOTH before they completed their functions. Remember the time for the unfold is about 3 secons, and 33 takes 5-6 to knock off the tee balls. Any thoughts?

I would try to cap there goal and bury that yellow ball 2 foot into the PVC. I think this would limit the damage. One team might also pound the big ball into the mobile goal also. My thoughs.
