Go to Post Yes, it is fun. Its fun to watch the students expand their thinking and look outside the "normal" and watch their thoughts explode! Its also fun to watch the mentor's minds fry trying to out think the students.;) - Robert Cawthon [more]

So it would require a sense of dodging and tactical driving skill. No human players, other then the drivers of the robots, and the coaches behind the driver would be included. There would also would be a portion of the field called the 'dead zone' where no tagging happens, but your robot couldn't stay their for a long duration without getting a penalty, unless it was deactivated.
May I also note that a BIG advantage would be given to those teams with crab or swerve drives.

On the same line, we need a game where nearly all advantages will be stripped except for experience and maybe the drive train. We need something completely crazy with absolutely no prior FIRST connections. Maybe stationary obstacles (Rocks, stairs, no ramps) that need to be driven over to score should be added?
