Based on the video I've seen, the camera tracking and long shots make for a much more beautiful, impressive machine than the more efficient solution of turreted dumping. Mind you, when you're holding a championship trophy, the robot's going to look pretty beautiful regardless of what had to be done to it to get you there!

I would really, really, like to see this game played on a playing field with about twice as much floor area so that teams with elegant designs get a chance to show off what they can do other than just "push and shove" and dump in close.

Mind you, I say that for all the games... when we increased the teams on the floor back in '05, we really should have increased the size of the floor as well.

Good luck in Atlanta!
