Hey,

Still wondering how will the robots find eachothers hopper, has

To a large extent I believe this is your problem to figure out.

I like the idea of saying the hopper is no more then 10 blocks above
the play surface.  Now it's my problem to figure out how to tell I'm
over someone else's hopper and release a block.  It's also my problem
to build a hopper the other robots will recognize and release a block
into.

I would suggest for this event that we build robots that we can
modify significantly from round to round.  A process of tweaking your
robot throughout the day to make it perform better and better.

Observe our robot play around, then try and modify it so it's more
receptive to other peoples bots and finds other peoples bins better.
