1. the "no defense" rule: how are you supposed to stop an opponent from scoring??? you let them?! i don't think so! this is going to be such a high scoring game! you think the judges wasted alot of time making decisions last year?! just wait.
2:you cannot lift your boom above 6 feet in the opponents area... how are you supposed to knock sown opponents balls at the end?! you might as well not bother trying to knock them off cuz you'll get penalized!!!!!
3: counterclockwise?? one direction?? what is this nonsense?! what happened to strategy?! they don't let us do anything now. its like communism we have to conform or die!! our drivers are gonna get dizzy just thinkin about it!!

"the game is only half stupid not fully stupid"

1: How about descoring from the overpass, how about herding/bulldozing opponents trackballs, it is a long ways around the track if a trackball goes into the quad behind you or in front of you

2: No longer applies, see update #1

3: It is only counter-clockwise quad to quad for the robots, not the trackballs, nor for the robots within a quad

So, don't be too down on this years game, look more for the things/strategies you can do instead of the ones you can not.

Good Luck!
