I trust my life to a 3650 pound rolling chunk of metal every day that, if some silicon failed in just the right (wrong?) way, would splat me pretty quickly, but I have faith in engineering. On the other hand, it doesn't turn me upside down. - DonRotolo [more]

Well, the thing is, I don't need to see it move. I don't need to know how much traction it has, how good the drivers are, etc. You see, I have another WAY. An IDEA. Now, I ask, is it better to

a) Start using the pictures online to get an idea of what is going to go on, make some base strategies, and then refine them when you see the robots in action

or

b) Go into the competition completely blind and trying to formulate strategies on the fly, not having anything prepared at all

You see, with a little thought and some planning, strategizing now can help in the long run. And, is it hurting anyone?
