Collusion sucks. I'm going to figure out how to maximize my team's ranking score (if it matters to us) without talking to the other alliance. Then again, my team's built a very defense oriented robot, and the qualification system gives us no chance to show off the characteristics of the robot designed completely around the elimination round... *sigh*
