Day 1 strategic analysis:

Team Leader: “So now we know all the ways we can score points, but what can we do to prevent our opponents from scoring”

New excited freshman who clearly hasnt read the game manual: “Block climbing by lodging boulders on the opponent climb bar!!”

3

“If you attempt that climb, you’ll be stuck between a rock and a bar’d place…”

4

Well, I see the GDC finally did us all a favor and got rid of chains. However, I didn’t expect that to be the design to stop the balls.

5

How could they forget to put the reserve bolder in??? Wait sorry…

6

Ref: “What do you mean someone put a boulder in the tower and blocked your climb? I didn’t see it, so of course it couldn’t have happened, and besides we don’t pay attention to boulders around the tower. You say you have a photo? I’m sorry, but what part of ‘will not review’ was unclear? Why, yes, I AM the head ref, sorry if the stripes are fooling you.”

[NPOE]Don’t hold back. I probably deserve every shot I take in this one.[/NPOE]

7

Beware of falling boulders

8

Ref: I know they pre-loaded that boulder somewhere …

9

When your last-minute climb-an-dunk goes a tad wrong.

10

Yes, it’s completely above the low goal, but this astute observer doesn’t recognize it as a robot. No scale.

Why do I feel like that team’s theme song goes a bit like this:

We’re no strangers to love
You know the rules and so do I
A full commitment’s what I’m thinking of
You wouldn’t get this from any other guy

I just wanna tell you how I’m feeling
Gotta make you understand

Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you

We’ve known each other for so long
Your heart’s been aching, but
You’re too shy to say it
Inside, we both know what’s been going on
We know the game and we’re gonna play it

And if you ask me how I’m feeling
Don’t tell me you’re too blind to see

Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you

Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you

(Ooh, give you up)
(Ooh, give you up)
Never gonna give, never gonna give
(Give you up)
Never gonna give, never gonna give
(Give you up)

We’ve known each other for so long
Your heart’s been aching, but
You’re too shy to say it
Inside, we both know what’s been going on
We know the game and we’re gonna play it

I just wanna tell you how I’m feeling
Gotta make you understand

Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you

Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you

Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you

In years with shooting game objects, Zebras are known for their ability to follow the 5 D’s - Dodge Duck Dip Dive and Dodge. Otherwise, they’re subject to the 6th D, Darwin.

“When towers fight back!”

[npoe]

I can honestly say this is the first time I have been Rick Rolled in a text post…
[/npoe]

14

“Go and tell your master that we have been charged by God with a sacred quest. If he will give us food and shelter for the night, he can join us in our quest for the Holy Boulder.”
“Well, I’ll ask him, but I don’t think he will be very keen. Uh, he’s already got one, you see.”
“What?”
“He said they’ve already got one!”
“Are you sure he’s got one?”
“Oh yes, it’s very nice.”

3.1.2 MATCH Logistics

If a BOULDER becomes stuck on the RUNG, the Head Referee will shake the TOWER to free the BOULDER. In this situation, the ALLIANCE will not earn SCALE points. While shaking the TOWER, the Head Referee will take care not to impact gameplay of the other ALLIANCE.

16

Worst 2016 Dunk Fails

17

This proves my theory, the tower sucks.

18

The stone ramparts proved effective against cannon balls

19

No one realized the drivers were able to drop boulders on opposing robots. This one just got away from them.

20

The King Boulder surveyed his territory, feeling pleased as he watched the referee bow in submission.
