Re: Possible Lower Scores on Einstein?
 

Im looking forward to seeing how a match would turn out like that. I'll admit I'm skeptical to the success of the alliance that deploys this strategy.

Re: Possible Lower Scores on Einstein?
 

I just thought of something... the bridges on Einstein, unlike those everywhere else for the last couple weeks, will be completely new, and I've heard that new bridges can be quite slick. Is that true?

Another variable i just thought of that may affect shooting accuracy, this may not affect it as much because of all the stadium lights are the same but do you think different lighting could affect robots, and do you think they may compensate for this by letting teams calibrate cameras for 15 mins?

Re: Possible Lower Scores on Einstein?
 

In the past, teams who made it to Einstein have been given time to calibrate their cameras on the field before the elimination rounds/award ceremony started. (Or at least they were in 2006 and 2007. Did any team on Einstein between 2008 and 2011 even use a camera? I know there were several teams in 2009 that had it mounted, but I'm not sure if they ever actually made use of it during game play that year--we didn't.)
