Isn't the game Aim HIGH? Seems rather low to me.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #375

A week ago, the same mentor was doing the same thing--but the students had rigged a false bottom on that bin. You think it's bad when the bottom of the bin is solid... Try after it collapses to hit you low and the next shot deflects under your safety glasses.

"Whoa, did you see 375 has a floating tote? That's wicked awesome."
"Naw, you just can't see the guy holding it. He's wearing camouflage."

When the inspectors saw this proposed solution for measuring maximum shooter speed, they insisted on the radar gun instead.

Waking up in the hospital hours later, the mentor mumbled, "Bin there, done that."

Robots is serious business. Here, a team is using military-grade poof-proof deflectors to test their high-tech shooter.
