Re: Rule Changes at off season competitions

Ok, this may be kind of stupid... but I think it would be highly amusing to see it in action.

I think most people would say that scoring the small balls is easy. So easy that for the most part, if the ball gets to the human player station there's a really good chance it will be scored.

My change would be to swap goals. The blue alliance scores in the red goals and the red team scores in the blue goals. A human player would have to be athletic enough to throw the extra distance and accurate enough to throw it over the hanging bar.

To make it easier, the bars of the stationary goal are oriented opposite of what they are now. As far as capping the goals, I think teams might have to get on the platform to score the 2X balls, or hopefully their mechanism just works. Finally, to force teams to use the stationary goals, I would remove the mobile goals.
