We're going for all 3, but can settle for less, if need be.

Re: What row will you score on or will you score at all?

This question is related to the "how tall/heavy will your robot be" question, and the answer seems to be the same....we'll know when we get there!

Re: What row will you score on or will you score at all?

Seems like a team who's trying to score the tubes would want to score them wherever would give them the most points. </John Madden>
No, seriously. Where you go for is really going to depend on the match, and where the tubes currently are.

Re: What row will you score on or will you score at all?

I think scoring in the middle row would probably be the best position strategically, since you can continue making a vertical row either from the upper or lower "spider leg." Other than that, I'd guess the bottom row.

Re: What row will you score on or will you score at all?

Our team is working on an arm that would theoretically be able to get up to the top row, though it's more likely we'll just stick with the bottom two. The primary function of our robot will be a Defender/Platform for the end of the match so the arm is a secondary priority. If we have enough weight we'll go for all 3.

Re: What row will you score on or will you score at all?

It is key in this game to be flexible with your scoring options and tube retrieval options. I think it is an important strategy to work with your alliance partners on this one, such as one team taking a specific part of the rack. Although this may create another defensive strategy to notice scoring patterns and then block a team from their section, that's a completely different story...

Re: What row will you score on or will you score at all?

we've got a design in mind that will effectively score on all three levels. The only problem now is implementing it
(btw, we haven't figured out how to completely tap into the powers of magic smoke, so we've started actually engineering )

Re: What row will you score on or will you score at all?

we're actually going to score every tube. even the ones that aren't ours. We won't be using will power; rather we will be using the magic smoke out of our camera, victors, and other various electronics. Its pretty potent stuff.
