I believe the highest score I saw at Manchvegas was about 150. I did miss a few matches whilst preparing to be human player, but I'm fairly sure no one went much higher than that.

On Thursday, during the practice rounds, an alliance of us (Team 1073) and Team Hyper 69 scored well over 200 points during the 2 minute limit. Our robot herded an ungodly amount of balls (it can do four at a time very well) to me and Joe (the hyper human player), and we filled up the stationary goal. That was capped by Hyper. They then hung. Joe and I then proceeded to fill up the mobile goal. Though there was no official tally, I counted the number of balls roughly and the final score was over 200 points.

Man, we were a good alliance. Unfortunately, they were seeded second, and we were seeded ninth, and when 501 (1st seed) picked Hyper, we were bumped up, and therefore unable to be chosen. Hyper's robot played in all of the finals matches and the alliance of Hyper, The Power Knights, and Team 176 eventually won Manchvegas.

But yeah...that was the highest I've seen so far...

Yeah, i thought of that after I posted, of course. Didn't mean to insult any HP's out there. Most that I saw on the webcast were real good, and consistent, they just ran out of balls.

Which is why our robot did so well (9th seed, 5-2-1 record)--because our efficient and effective ball herding system consistently got our alliance 8 to 15 balls per match and allowed us to match up well with anyone who could cap and/or hang.

:D

Our losses came when we were matched with non-cappers/hangers or with cappers/hangers who couldn't work. We were looking forward to nationals, where we figured that all of the teams that made it that far would be able to cap/hang consistently, but we lost in the finals after we were bumped up to seventh seed. Oh well :(

I was in the pits most of the time at Manchester, but didn't even realize that we may have had THE highest score at the regional. We won a match with 176, 150-100 on Saturday.

My team, 492 and team 1031 combined to tie the high score on Saturday at the Pacific Northwest Regional in Portland, Oregon. We did it with one robot hanging, 12 balls in the big goal, and the big goal capped. Needless to say, our human players rocked, and pretty much everything went perfectly that round.

Interestingly, we were against our second alliance partner that round. Our next match, we were against 1031, and they nearly tipped us over, after which we prevented them from hanging for only the second time during qualifications.

The other round in which 170 points were scored in portland involved a team getting a small goal under the ball release and removing the big ball, and getting both the big and little goals capped at the end. That was a fun match to watch as well.

Here is a picture of our score. You can look around the gallery to see pictures of Atlas, our robot, collecting balls and capping goals.

Winning here secured enough money for us to attend the Championship event... see you all there, hopefully.

i can't wait to see 200+ scores

The score in the second final in the NJ regional was 140-120.

It was an intense game. :cool:

At VCU Buzz 9 was able to get 18 balls in the big goal in one of the chapmionship rounds if my memory serves me correctly...they didn't, however, have a partner that could cap. I was a bit dissapointed because had they been able to cap, we would have seen 180 alone without any other points (ie hanging, small goal)...nationals should be quite the show in that sense...i would love to see an over 200 points game...that would be awesome :)

there was a score 140-55 in the quarterfinals 1.1 ---- 195 and 11 vs 181 and 571

In NJ my team, team 11 MORT, got a 170 point round making it the 2nd highest of the weekend, but I dont know what the other higher score was.

In quarterfinal 1.1 at UCF they had a 180-40 match thats the highest i've seen yet.

we had a few 0-0 matches...a 0-5 and a 5-10... highest was a dismal 160...

I wasn't there for qualifiying matches, but the highest score in the alliance pairing matches at the Pittsburg regional was 125. :ahh:

Yup 945's Robot sure was a good one, good enough to keep us from the platform twice (we fell and righted our selves), then well we fell again. Exciting match though. The Alliance we picked tried to hang too, but that didn't work out. Lol. Oh well we lost to the greatest in QF 1.1, and gave them a run for their money in the next match, which was a lot closer.

In our last match on Friday us, paired with THINK PINK (233[The Space Coast Team]) achieved a score of 140, with 8 balls in the goal (go shooters!) and both robots hanging. :)

the UCF 180 point could of been higher but we got a -10 point flag

Team 61 and team 945
