Which update is this?

15 seconds on practice day only
 

Team Update 10 lists 15 seconds of human player time during the PRACTICE ROUNDS ONLY. In the fine print is says that the H.P.'s should get used to the 10 seconds during this 15 sec time.

How do you delete your own posts, because i didnt mean to put this here. SORRY

I am my team's human player and didn't have that much trouble getting off in under ten seconds. As long as you stack the boxes right near the wall it isn't hard, but I can't say I would mind having the extra five seconds.

And an experienced human player she is, too!:rolleyes:

At the SCRRF scrimmage, HP stacking was slow at first, but after every team had a couple of rounds the HPs were usually doing the stacking in less than 10 seconds. The important thing was for them to do it quickly and not slow down to look at the clock.

Another hard part of the Human Player Period is that you actually have to enter the field and place your bins you cant just put them over the rail. And be careful that both feet are on the pad and that you do NOT REMOVE EITHER FOOT until the end of the HPP. Because if you lift up a foot it will not register you as being on the pressure pad. So does FIRST use to seperate pads or what?

i think stacking is a much more elegant way to play this game.

whether stacking becomes a major factor to the outcome of the actual competitions we wont know till ...soon.

i hope for my team that it will be important.

same with limbo.

Our team was the only team that did very well at stacking at the scrimmage we went to.

I think that stacking is a critical part of the game. It allows you to up your score tremendously. But you have to remember not to stack too many (ok I don't think that will be a problem)

Our team's stacker is capable of stacking 7 or 8 boxes high, can re-orient them in upright position, can carry the boxes across the ramp without a problem, and can stack boxes at a fairly fast pace.
