Even if your robot can get on the ramp try scoring 1 pointers. But maybe there is something i am missing?

Shaun,
Many teams subscribe to the policy "I would rather win by a lot then loose by a little."

What they mean by this is that I want to make sure I have the highest differencial in the score to my advantage. You never know how penalties or gonna swing, so people believe they should put themself in the best position to win the match, which is worth more than QP.
