Especially tracks.
Really guy? You want people reading posts like this and determining what they think of you?

Of course it will happen, but there is a difference between good hard defense and purposely rolling another robot.

I expect to see the bumps vigorously defended, and I expect to see some robots roll when that happends, but I do not expect to see teams purposely 'slam'ing another robot intentionally rolling it.

... we'll see how tight it's called by the refs.
