Light sensors, grabbing tetra's, and making sure the other team does not "connect 3"

All 3 robots behind starting line at end of match: 10 points.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it's like a giant tic-tac-toe game with lots of bonus opportunities.

Re: The Game

At fist my reaction was a total ...didn't make sense...but now it's growing on me. This game is going to get very physical between the robots. Also i think we're going to see more differences in the robots than we expect...lots of possibilities out there.

I thought each capped tetra was 2 points? And do diagonals count for the rows of tetras? That wasn't very clear

<C01> A TETRA is worth 1 point if CONTAINED in any GOAL and 3 points if STACKED on any GOAL at the end of the match, for the alliance of the corresponding color.
<C02> Any ROW of three GOALS OWNED by the same alliance at the conclusion of the match is worth 10 points for the alliance. There are eight possible ROWS.

If there are 8 rows, then, YES! diagonals do count.
And definitely three points. *points up*

I think it'll also be interesting to see how the game develops in real time. Think about it, you'll have to stay out on the field to the end of the game to get a row of tetras because they'll be switching back and forth as robots cap over other robot's tetras. But the bonus for one row and the bonus for being behind the line are the same. Hm...what will everyone go for? It should be fun to watch.

On the other hand, I feel bad for scouts. This is going to be so hard for any one person to follow!
