Lowest Finals Scores
So some of my students on 20 and 5254 were discussing our slightly infamous match at the 2015 New York Tech Valley Regional where we scored only 18 points in our first finals match due to horrible luck and fouls.
Aside from matches with Red Cards, was this the lowest finals match score of 2015? Additionally, how does this compare to other years compared to their average scores? |

I believe it's actually theoretically possible to get three fouls on ONE play, without involving the robot. I leave it as an exercise to the reader to figure that one out... |

Speaking out where I am, I reffed 2 events and watched another event's matches from the stands. Week 1, Week 3, Week 5. 1) Lots of "dumb" fouls by the humans. We got most of 'em in practice, but a number of other times someone just forgot what was going on. A couple of totes going over the step happened a time or two. 3) Not as many fouls, but still quite a few, as I recall. Again, mainly humans. 5) Long stretches without a foul... but we did issue a few in practice. Aside from a yellow card after the first match (team entered the field too early) and a rapid-fire sequence of fouls late in the first day, the refs mostly just stood there. I don't think we called a single robot foul, but several humans were over the wall or throwing late (the #1 most common foul, I think). |

Lowest at VA was 84 (Red Alliance, F1). Lowest winning score was 102 (Blue Alliance, F2).

Re: Lowest Finals Scores
Most likely either inadvertently propping the chute door open or knocking over a stack and causing totes to break the plane of the opponent's field.

Now in Indiana, I don't think we ever had a match that one alliance got 0 points but I remember looking through blue alliance after week 1 and seeing many 0 scores at different regionals. I guess some teams couldn't move totes to the scoring platform or got a few totes on the platform but had fouls too.

Re: Lowest Finals Scores
The lowest scoring finals match I saw was at Seneca (MAR) with the finalist alliance scoring 55 points. I have seen my share of 0 point scores, mainly due to fouls, robot malfunctions, and under-practiced drivers.

Re: Lowest Finals Scores
For New England, excluding the district Championship, the lowest score was Rhode Island Finals match 3 with a score of 48 points. The Hartford District had both the highest scores of 207 in Finals 1 (losing score was 174 and was the fourth highest score in Finals) and 210 in Finals 2.
The District Championship had scores of 239 in Finals 1 and 256 in Finals 2. It shouldn't be a shock that the four high scores were put up with 195 on the alliance. ;) 2067 also was a part of the DCMP high scores and the Hartford Finals score of 174. Both incredible machines. |

I checked with The Blue Alliance and found one example, Qualification Match 22 at the Indianapolis event. There's video of the match available, if you want to feel depressed about a lack of robot performance. https://www.thebluealliance.com/match/2015inind_qm22 I thought I saw a playoff match with a red card, which should have given the entire alliance a score of 0. I don't remember the details of how the card was taken back and the score preserved. |
