RobotC has the ability to program over bluetooth.

Samantha works on wifi not bluetooth

For this years game bluetooth had to be disabled on the NXT in order to participate.

While true that it's wifi and not bluetooth, Samantha can work with the bluetooth on in addition to the module plugged in for development. That means that you can program over bluetooth and use Samantha simultaneously from a different computer.

Bluetooth must be off at the tournament, but it can be on while you are developing. If you use RobotC, bluetooth is still definitely the easiest means to test and debug your programs.
