Re: High score of the season
 

no one is going to beat 26... the only way you will ever score that many is if your alliance partners are 469 and 217

someone got 58 in the SF or Finals at Buckeye!

[Head ref looks for penalties]
(announcer)
And It looks like a penalty free game!
[Head ref signs something, announcer makes a joke about it]


The score is now official! 4-0 in favor of the blue alliance.
[scoreboard shows 53 penalties]
[confusion ensues]
[2-3 minutes pass]

[scoreboard updated with 58 and 53 penalties for red]
[some laughter ensues]
The score is in favor of the red alliance!

Re: High score of the season
 

We were with 469 and got 26pts with them. Final score 26-12....

Re: High score of the season
 

They definitely had an opportunity to beat it today. 217 was on their alliance, and alliance member number 3 (don't recall the number) was in the near zone. The defending robot in their zone never moved. However, partner #3 took a bit to hit their stride, so by the time the loop was going full bore, there was only 40 seconds left or so. Had the loop started earlier, they definitely could've smashed the record.

Maybe Car Nack paid them off. :P

Re: High score of the season
 

my team was in that match against 469 and 217. I showed up late to find out that everyone on my team is against playing 6v0(???).

Can someone explain to me why my team wouldn't want to play 6v0 against 469(good), 217(good), and I beleive 1789?(fighting pi also good)? we were with robots that were rookies and stuff...

Luckily our robot didn't move, so we didn't embarrass ourself by not playing 6v0, but had we been helping them I think we could have easily hit 30 points. i'm sad that my team did not want to be a part of the highest scoring match this season...

Pride.

I don't know of a MLB pitcher that wanted to give up a record breaking Homer or an NFL defense that put their hands down to allow a record breaking catch.

Re: High score of the season
 

It wouldn't be much of a record-breaking score if it only happened because the opponent's weren't playing the game, would it?

Re: High score of the season
 

The answer is that it's a record nonetheless, and the teams who achieved it wouldn't have done so if they weren't at least slightly deserving. How much significance or esteem you want to assign to that record achieved under the extenuating circumstances is up to you.

Re: High score of the season
 

I think I might have been unclear. I was merely stating that playing 6v0 to achieve a record score wouldn't be worth it to me.

The fact that one of the opposing alliance's robots didn't move during this record-setting match does not diminish its significance, IMO.

Re: High score of the season
 

I don't know, I think I would be able to swallow my pride for 30 seed points easy...
