Re: Wildstang: Done

hahaha! nice try but anyone who did a little bit of reasearch would see that that was a combination of their 2001 robot and an arm that is not a part of any previous 111 robot...

You may want to take a closer look at some pictures of our 2005 robot.

That is a great sign of what could be coming.
Thanks guys for the very flattering posts, but *************************

We're actually in the planning stage right now. Any ideas for which music?

The song name is appropriate for the days winding down to ship date.

There are 21 possible tubes, allowing for 2 rows of 8 and 1 row of 5. Vertically, that gives you 5 columns of 3 and 3 columns of 2.

2*256 + 1*32 + 5*8 + 3*4 = 596

Are there other point-scoring I'm missing, or is there a more optimal rack arrangement?

Bongle,

Your analysis is correct. 892 and points would be the maximum score if an alliance could fill the entire rack with tubes.

3*2^8 + 8*2^3 + 60 = 892

Of course, as you pointed out, alliances only have 21 scoring tubes. The person who came up with 892 probably missed this fact.

Re: Wildstang: Done

both sides only get 18 tubes, so that is the maximum amount there can be for one side...

You're almost right. Each side has a total of 18 Ringers, but they start autonomous with 3 Keepers. Hence, 18+3=21 total tubes.

Re: Wildstang: Done

The 892 requires three Ringers or Keepers to be generated by magic! :D But 596, when you guys play against a sucky alliance of robots that can only drive and not do much else. The bad news is that it is a hit in the standings from a rank point standpoint.

But as for dance music. Try "19-2000" by Gorillaz. If the NFL Cheerleaders had to make dance routines to that, then you can too! Then....you guys can hit on 'em and show 'em YOUR dance moves! :p

Note: There are no sucky alliances.

Oh what a fitting song... Ladies and Gentlemen by Saliva. But please don't use it... I have big plans for it.
