Re: Autonomous Longer????
Don't make it longer, simply make it worth more. Personally, I think autonomous is great for programmers to test out their skills and it has great potential. Aim High 2006 was probably one of the best autonomous periods in a while because we saw many great offensive ones, AS WELL AS defensive maneuvers. The outcome was also totally unpredictable and was different every game - even between the same alliances. The Autonomous period also had great value due to the high volume of regular and bonus points you could score. However, I don't think the general audience (sponsors, administrators, etc) like watching pre-programmed movement. It's probably much more exciting to watch drivers battle it out against each other on the field.
