I would actually say that there will be more regionals that do not have a level 3 hang then there will be districts. Lots of powerhouse teams packed into 10 competitions with 2 districts each will make it hard to not see any level 3 hangs.

Let us hope that the great Car Nack does better than last year... he was 1-2, and the 1 was pretty much a gimme! I do think this will be right, though... some regionals have had enough trouble with games where you only have to climb once, and now they have to climb 3 times in the same game (and, if the discussion in that other thread is correct, have a really tall team member to get the robot down!)

To add my own twist to this...

During 1st week, I think over 50% of >10pt climb attempts will (or should) be illegal due to robots breaking the 54" cylinder rule.

Teams won't take into account that a) the bumpers are included in the cylinder, or b) the cylinder is always projected vertically from the floor.

You can't reach forward very far, or have your robot tip very much while climbing.

Could you quote the rule for this? It was my understanding that since the BUMPERS are attached to the ROBOT, and since it is the ROBOT that needed to fit within the 54" cylinder, the ROBOT does not include BUMPERS.

Q. Does the 54" diameter cylinder include the bumpers or not. R05 ambiguous.

A. Yes, BUMPERS are considered part of the ROBOT for [G23]. This will be addressed in Team UPDATE - 2013-01-11.

Oh Great Car Nack, thank you for great insight, for perhaps we have forgotten the ways of our elders.

#3 ALMOST ALL REPLIES WILL BE REJECTED WITHOUT RHYME OR REASON GIVEN. If the reply is funny, or clever, or significant, or in some other way strikes the fancy of the monitor, your message will be approved, but don't expect it.

#4 I will give negative reputation as often as I can at every opportunity to any user who whines or complains about this forum ;-) Seriously though, nobody wants to hear it, especially me. Life is unfair, this forum included. Where is the news in that?

There will be some Regionals where no robot will score a 30 point climb.

Car Nack has spoken.

Oh Great Car Nack. Does the future reveal to you any apparition of the robots that do make the summit? In your vision, did you see any indication as to the prevalence of the robots that were dedicated to climbing and doing little or nothing else?

Which is GREAT!

...I even think Carnack's original prediction might need to be revisited thanks to this TU.

No way. 30 point hang is brutal. Those who say it is easy are not thinking it through or are way smarter than the rest of us ...
