Re: end of match autonomous mode

I for the most part like the idea. In regards to everyone saying this would be boring/anticlimatic at the end, why would everyone be forced into this end autonomous? Instead towards the end of the game you have a challenge available to only those in autonomous, while the other teams are free to continue with the bulk part of the game. To activate autonomous, teams press a button similar to that of the kill switch. That team then has 5 or some other number of seconds to get out of the drivers area. via light seqences or maybe even a special light the audiance, refs, and other drivers can tell which teams are running in autonomous. I think seeing this would perhaps (with the right game) make for some of the most exciting endings.
