Can we bump this up to 50? I want more priority on speed! As Daves • example
shows, this scoring scheme seems to favour accuracy more than speed.


I was thinking about this.  And I was having a hard time finding a
number that would balance out a robot that only moves 1 or 2 blocks then

claims to be done.

Sure, We never really have people who show up to be goof's on purpose,
BUT As your second point asks, what would we call done??


Also,
if you have a misplaced block, you should get a score of 0. The whole • point
of the game is to make the X pattern, whether fast or slow. If your • robot
can't do that, then it missed the point.


if we gave 0 as a score to any robot that had 1 missing block, then i
think we all would not win.  in your tests have you  had a bad drop? or
a
block dragged, or something that causes a  not-X?? We still have to
reward the attempt of a mostly-X.
