I can wow on lookers with my aggressive directional pointing, and my throwing grunts.

I also saw a match at the UNH districts where the HP button got stuck in the stack, which was declared an ineligible stack, since it wasn't fully supported by the bottom tote. This was in the final matches. #Buttongate

Some were also able to get their noodles under opposing robots which messed them up to the point of forcing them to put the stack down to re stabilize.

Re: Human Player Feats
 

Jammed a robot's lifting belt, hit the other alliance wall, no-scoped a ref across the field and the noodle bounced in. Got the points for all three.

Re: Human Player Feats
 

During the Midwest Regional our alliance (1st seed) got to finals against Mars Wars (frc#4143)(3rd seed) and during the finals matches the human played had managed to contribute upwards of 30 points of litter in matches.

Re: Human Player Feats
 

This isn't a record feat, but I almost threw a noodle in the last two seconds of the match. I was lucky enough that my coach yelled at me not to throw it. Lol

Re: Human Player Feats
 

That's great.

Re: Human Player Feats
 

At least you weren't the team whose COACH threw a noodle after the buzzer...

Two fouls on one throw of a noodle is not a feat you want to get. It might have been 4 on 2 (same alliance threw one a couple seconds later) but I didn't see who threw that one.


On the plus side, there was that one HP who got the nickname "Sir Snipes-A-Lot" (his team was the Knights, and he wore a knitted knight helmet). One match, every noodle went for points except for the one that left the field. (Not all made it all the way over... two were in the landfill.) He also had this knack for getting close to opponent robots.

Re: Human Player Feats
 

Wait... did they not read the rules or something?

Re: Human Player Feats
 

I have no idea. Wasn't the first coach I'd caught (as a ref) handling game objects this season--the previous one was at a previous regional's practice day, though--and he'd only moved a tote stack in the station.

With 316 points, 2067 holds the litter high school out of the 607 teams at champs.
The next highest score (I believe) is by 1114 with 312 litter points.

Re: Human Player Feats
 

I'm not sure whose noodle it was, but there was a particularly well-placed noodle on the scoring platform during Quarters8 on Carson. It caused one would-have-been-42 point stack placed a few seconds before the buzzer to fall over into another used-to-be-42 stack. Unfortunately, I can't see the video.

Re: Human Player Feats
 

And people complain that there's no defense in RR! :deadhorse:

Re: Human Player Feats
 

I believe this happened in QF4. I remember hearing a sudden uproar from the Carson division when in queue for our first match.
Although in QF8, the #1 alliance's luck wasn't any better, unfortunately.

Re: Human Player Feats
 

Our human player threw a noodle into our mechanism while we were lifting totes. The noodle might have gotten shredded into little pieces...

Re: Human Player Feats
 

We also got a noodle thrown straight into our lift while stacking. This was the result:

Re: Human Player Feats
 

Ouch. I'm guessing you only got 2 points for that one?
