And just to be precise, the score is given for empty dispensers, and not 
(what I would call) triggered dispensers.  Correct?  I ask because in 
the course of the match, our robot dispenses the pink bacteria and then 
later "resets" the dispenser to the original position (without any 
bacteria, of course).
