Yes, but if the scoring is the number of your blocks in other unique 'bots times
the number of other unique blocks in yours, a box can't win--no blocks going
into others...
That said, if you have your box able to get blocks into other 'bots that move
around it, then, well, you have yourself a 'bot that I'd like to see,
If the scoring is as it is-- X times Y -- then stationary box 'bots can't
possibly win--at best, tie.
No, as Chris stated, besides the tee hee factor, this competition is a valid
one, and it's just a slightly different take on block sorting and block
stacking, which, again as stated earlier, we've done many times.
The plan, for me anyway, is that my EOAT doesn't even enter into another 'bot,
btw...

| (...) no one has EVER said your EOAT has to ENTER another bot to deposit a brick. hell, with a know size and hight for the HITW,just build a lego gun on a turret. that was my idea. (couples with a few wiskers to feel for the HITW) Chris (19 years ago, 27-Sep-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
