I saw this happen to 365 MOE in Atlanta during one of the qualifying matches, it was amazing.

I also remember seeing team 254, 987, and 66 all shoot for the center goal during autonomous in qualifying match # 71 on the Newton field. It was simply amazing. Here is a link to the match: NewtonMatch71
I saw this post while on vacation, so I uploaded this photo of the incident.

After getting hit, and tipped, TerMOEnator began shooting 5 for 5 in the center goal. It certainly surprised us, and most of the other folks in the stands. One mentor from Team 291 yelled "MOE, what do you have in that thing?" It's actually a tribute to the quality of our programming team that things like this happen (i.e., autonomous mode is disrupted, but the program compensates and recognizes that the robot is aligned for scoring).

Edit: I should also mention the great sportsmanship shown by the Rambunctions Rams (462) competition team, who immediately backed away after autonomous, rather than risk tipping MOE over.
