Re: [FTC]: FTC Block Party! Official Thread
Is there anything in the rules about raising flags in auton/raising your opposing alliance's flag? That could be done in auton to sabotoge the other alliance's end game.

Re: [FTC]: FTC Block Party! Official Thread
<GS6> states "During the Autonomous period, robots can only score pre-loaded blocks. If any other blocks other than the two autonomous blocks are scored by an Alliance during the autonomous period, their autonomous period block score is zero...." Would it be possible to score in the opposing alliance pendulum/floor goal so that they score three blocks, thus making their autonomous score zero? ...Or would it put our alliance score at zero?

If you scored your Autonomous block in their goal, I'd bet you just gave them an extra 22-43 points! |
Re: [FTC]: FTC Block Party! Official Thread
Anyone else play around with a "max score calculation"?
If my team's assumptions are correct we calculated it to be 705. This of course is all 100 blocks scored in outer goals, max score in autonomous (both scored in IR outer goal and both fully on bridge), and an endgame where the flag is raised fully and both robots hang/hang on each other and then the pole. This would leave the other alliance with a scoring potential max of 175. Let me know if we went somewhere wrong in the math. Thanks! |

Has anyone been successful in printing the one page game description?
http://www.usfirst.org/sites/default...e_One_Page.pdf I've tried a number of things and there seems to be an error in the PDF. I can read it on the screen, but not print it no matter which machine/OS/etc I try. |

Penalties are handled different this year. Penalties are added to the opposing Alliance's score. In theory this means the max score is unlimited. Ranking points shouldn't be affected by penalties. Quote:

Re: [FTC]: FTC Block Party! Official Thread
Very true! We were not thinking about penalties. Glad to hear we are all on the same page as far as the max "scorable" score being 705.
On a different note, has anyone with the new AndyMark playing field played around with the dimensions for building the flagpoles? The building guide says some of the geometery may be different but does not specify as to what could change. Ideas? |

It's even more far fetched than getting 50 blocks in one of the outside Pendulum Goals, but we're dealing with theoretical possibilities. :D |

In practice, I would say that if you're careful you could realistically get 25 per bin. So the maximum feasible score would be: Auto: 80 block + 40 bridge = 120 Teleop: (25*3+25*2)*2 Block +50% balance bonus = 375 35 Flag Score 100 Hanging Score Total = 630 |
