The Chokehold Strategy

Sorry to double post, but I think this needs to be said.

IT IS OK!
We built (heh, and/or modified) our robot to be abused. We knew going into this that our robot would be one to be attacked (and we have been). Please, we completely understand pulling and pushing on the goals in order to try to torque us around, this is perfectly legit. If you saw our second to last Qualification match at Drexel, you would know . Our wing was mangled. Both teams on the opposing alliance were incredibly graciously professional and appoligized, even offered to help fix it. And it wasn't just that match, it was all throughout the day.
To show our attitude concerning this, our team decided to introduce a new MOEward (our team awards): The MOE Mauler Award. This award will be given to the team that manages to beat us up the most. With the award will come a nice little piece of the robot to remember us by. But please, we award this in good faith that the intention was not to damage MOE, nor to win the award, but to play the game.
Sorry to divulge from the thread subject, but again, it needed to be said.
