Strategy for Passive Robots (with no attack system)

So we're a rookie team with rookie issues - we learn this year what NOT to do next year. We planned a shooter AND a dumper AND a conveyor! Crazy ><.
We are, what?, 8 days before shipping? Nothing is done and our robot can only move and our camera can find the colors and stop on it (only the camera, not the robot... and that's with a pre-programmed FIRST LabView programs). THAT'S ALL.
Now, i'm asking myself, and you, what's the best strategy a robot with no attack systems can use in the competition?
Help? ><

See if you can add one simple roller with a small hopper to collect balls from humans or the floor and deposit them in the corner. In 1712's rookie season (2006), that's almost exactly what we did (no camera or sensors) and had a blast at competition despite playing with and against prolific shooters. We were able to play some defense as well as provided some help to most alliances we were a part of.

Here are a few photos:

Good luck!
