Go to Post I don't know how you can blame a robot getting stuck in the goal on the GDC. The field drawings showed all of the dimensions of the goals. If a team doesn't want to risk getting stuck then they need to plan around it. - JamesBrown [more]

Re: Teams attending three regionals...

This is our reasoning for doing a third regional (almost for sure to be Waterloo) and we'll keep that in mind when designing the robot. The robot we used this year barely survived 2 regionals, every single match of the eliminations in Galileo and Einstein, IRI, Kettering Kickoff, and Sweet Repeat (oh the great box of spare parts we've amassed). In my opinion, a third regional forces a little bit more caution and strength into the design.
