That has been proven incorrect. Our 2005 robot frankly was not designed to cap like crazy. After a LOT of practice and fine tuning we got our drivers to the point where we did not waste even a fraction of a second. Our coach kept a good lookout for strategy and we capped ONLY WHERE it mattered. We have outscored MANY good robots this way. Although, truly good robots are truly good only when they have truly good drivers.
