Another thing I haven't seen mentioned is where does Autonomous come in to all of this?
This happened to 217 at FLR. We scored as much as we could for ourselves. The opposition sat robots in the corners since one was dead already. We actually got our rankings hurt by this (Slipped to 4th, probably could have been #2), but I would have done the same thing in their shoes. I was not the driver coach during this match, but there wasn't much 217 could do but score as many for ourselves as possible.
