The entire match, including our human player's amazing throw, can be found on The Blue Alliance :D

It's near the end of the match, you see a blue blur fly up from the right corner of the screen, then just plop down right onto the leg.

Team 610's human player scored 6 tubes on Saturday... COUNT IT! 6!
In one of our quarter finals match the tube our human player scored put us over the top. Scoring by the human player can be very useful, especially if you get into a defensive brawl where a couple tubes make a difference.

Re: Who has successfully THROWN ringers on to the rack yet?
 

Most of the time i am not called on to attempt to score, we try to do that with the robot because it cuts down on the number of tubes cluttering the field. If needed I think I am about a 18% sucess rate on the top and middle.
Technique: Throw like a frisbee as level as possible, generally when i score it hits the green light or the top spider and flops down on the one below.
The human player for 548 throws it vertical at the side of the rack and seems to do good that way too

Our human player got one on Saturday at Buckeye. It was neat because there were no robots on our alliance for that match that could score a ringer, and yet there one was at the end of the match. I'd say he's pretty good, he scored in spite of a broken finger on one hand.

Re: Who has successfully THROWN ringers on to the rack yet?
 

In Waterloo, there were a lot of Human Players who could actually throw ringers onto the rack on a consistent basis. I managed to toss 4 Ringers during practice Matches and 6 During Qualifying/Elimination Matches!

:cool:

At the LA Regional, our HP threw two ringers on the rack IN A ROW. The first two he threw during our last finals match went on the top and bottom; respectively. It was def one of the more impressive things I saw all competition.

Has anyone else thown two on in a row (in one match)?

Re: Who has successfully THROWN ringers on to the rack yet?
