dont forget about wall, cap, and pushbots

What is this? Just curious. It might be obvious and I’m just dumb and missed it, but wanted to check anyways.

4

Caps are last year’s game’s cubes. It’s a joke to bring back old games as the previous one (hence people ask if TP bots could ‘high hang’)

5

The best I can think of is a robot that caps off towers to prevent them from being used, although I haven’t seen any of those yet

Edit: Oof. I posted at the same time as Deicer. He’s probably right

Double Edit: Maybe I am right. IDK

Got it. Apparently I didn’t get the meme. oops

7

I did that first comp because I couldn’t get a claw built in time. Would probably work well where people actually use towers (not Kentucky).

I honestly doubt that is what @Avonderweidt is referring to, and I have never heard people joke about “cap bots” for TT, especially not in the same way as your example with “high hanging” in TP. What I think he is referring to is, as @alphagoats53999f said, a robot that “caps off” crucial scoring zones as referenced in the current game manual.

9

i was refering to capbots i think the only year they were a real thing was like sack attack or whatever it was called
@alphagoats53999f was correct

10

In the game manual it says (something like)

Cap-bots and wall-bots are legal, but are to be attempted at your own risk

If you want to find it, it is a little notation not a rule

11

I find “tower bots” to be a biased term that implies that’s all us bots with lifts are good for. Lift bot is a way better term. A good passive intake can be nearly as fast as a tray bot. (Only half joking here)

Should say tall bots instead of tower bots since you have double reverse four/six bars and scissor lifts

what is a mulibot?
Sounds like some derpy robot

16

multi bots are bots with 2 or more separate drive trains

17

I appreciate you, for the tall bot option, my robot is over 6’ tall

18

…

Why tho

Like 4’5” is plenty tall for even the tall tower

19

mine used to be 7 :cry::cry::cry:
