Re: Is Car Nack Right?
Has anyone ever checked Car Nack?
Especially on these: http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...ad.php?t=34897 http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...ad.php?t=37302 And as Dr. Joe pointed out, was he right with this one? http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...ad.php?t=31439 |

Re: Is Car Nack Right?
According to Car Nack we had a 2 vs 2 game last year. ;)
I'd say yes for the elim matches at regionals and qualifying at champs. |

So Car Nack is right in this case, but I'd give him more points if it weren't such an obvious prediction. Would Car Nack like to prognosticate about the likelihood of '07's game being the long-awaited aquatics challenge? |
Re: Is Car Nack Right?
While I think that 80% may be a little bit high overall. I think that the advantage afforded to the alliance winning the autonomous round will be enough to win most matches.
Therefore, I'll vote yes in the Qualifying rounds during regionals. During the elimination rounds, the defense will be a bit stiffer than last year. |
Re: Is Car Nack Right?
While winning auto proves the ability to score AND gives a 10 point bonus, I think 80% is just a bit high. I vote yes for Championship qualifying matches only, as most teams will have had at least one prior competition under their belt to hone their skills, and I agree with others that the defense in elim matches will be tougher and keep that number down a bit.
My question is ... who is going to keep track of this statistic ?? :ahh: BTW ... good poll/thread Dr. Joe. |

If so, not since Stack Attack has the first 10 seconds of the match been so important. It is astounding to me that this comment can be obvious to Bill Beatty and others but escape me entirely. Joe J. |

Re: Is Car Nack Right?
car nack is right, but i'm not going to say why. I'd even go as far as to say that the alliance that wins autonomous mode will win the match even more than 80% of the time. i'm not going to get into my theories behind this, though, since they're reserved for the team i'm mentoring. maybe a few weeks into build i'll share them, but not now :]

Re: Is Car Nack Right?
Hey i'm with Joe and car nack i believe whoever wins autonomous 80% of the time will make a big difference not typically win but will make the winner of autonomous the favored to win most of the time.

Re: Is Car Nack Right?
I believe that Carnack is pretty close on this one. The only monkey wrench in the mix is there is still two other robots on that alliance that must perform well for the next two minutes. (Assuming that one robot outshot everyone else.)
It would seem that gaining the advantage for the first 40 seconds will be huge. |
Re: Is Car Nack Right?
I think that Car Nack is right, and I think that it takes a pretty good imagination with how the game will play out to understand why. I won't pretend to share this vision to the same extent that Car Nack does, but if I only understand half of it, I'll agree with his predicition.
So whoever wins autonomous has an extra 10 points. This is... moderately influential, but not too swinging. What is terribly important is the order. If you lose autonomous, you're on offense first. Here's the problem: What exactly do you plan on shooting? Each team will presumably start with all 10 balls in their robot. If you lose autonomous, you're heading down to the side of the field where there are most likely more balls strewn about because the losing machines were inaccurate. 5 machines are on that side trying to pick up those balls, so likely the offense will get only 60% of what was missed. Keep in mind, they're using this time to refill as opposed to score points shooting. Even if the defense doesn't play any defense and just picks up balls, or sits and gets refilled through a top loading mechanism under the human player station, they are NOT wasting time gathering the playing field balls during their 40 seconds of offense in the second round. Second round, the team that wins auto now has picked up some balls, and ideally their back bot is full to the brim. These three machines do not need to spend any time loading their machines. I'm going to venture to say they have 15 or 20 more seconds of offense than the team that lost autonomous. The last 40 seconds, the team that lost auto now needs to move to the other side of the field to score, while the team that won does not. I'll be bolder than Car Nack: Assuming equal caliber machines, I think the team that wins autonomous wins 100% of the time, and this would happen even without the 10 point bonus. And to futher this point, I believe that if you're shooting the balls well this year, it's done with significant software control. If you win the autonomous mode, you likely have better aiming functions, and I think those machines, will be of a higher caliber. The most accurate shooting with descent strategy will win this game.
