Soooo just some thoughts

I have also thought about that. But when your matched against 3 extremely high scoring robots, and you have two extremely low scoring robots, how can your rely on your robot to win that match. You'd have to have an extremely powerful robot with an extremely experienced team. This is hard to come by. I do understand that the entire idea behind this competition is teamwork, but in a way you have to rely on your team mates. My point isn't to have a single robot based game, I'm saying that the ranking system in itself relies too heavily on the outcome of the match rather than a mix of performance of your bot, and the outcome of the match. IE, let's say you do 60% of the scoring in the match. Your other team mates do the other 40%. Yes you've done a fantastic job!! Awesome! But when you look at the ranks, you've all gone down nearly the same amount. What you've just done has no impact other than the fact that you lost overall. This really made our team feel like crap.
