Everyone is going to think they can outscore the other alliance and of course ;) they have the faster mini-bots...

Yes I do see what you mean. Our team used such a strategy in Qualifications 65 RED: 3451,176,3467 vs 175, 885, 40 and the final score was 75 to 62 with our robot (3467) being dead for half of the match when we could have been defending 40. If was going into a match against 67, 217, 27, 1918, etc I would tell our HP's to throw little too no tubes because the more tube there are the more they can score. The more time it takes them to get a tube due to a lack of tubes the less they will score.

Jack is right, Wright is not wrong! :rolleyes:

You just described the situation in Q48 at Smoky Mountains Regional, perfectly.

48, 79, 1747 against 71, 931, 3861. Result: 87-114. Faster minibots prevailed.

Good human players might eliminate the effectiveness of this strategy in some matches. I've seen numerous human players at the Michigan districts that can throw all the way to the scoring zone. I know ours, 217, 469, and 1250 (I think) can do it regularly.

1250 can, but hold alot of tubes because of not being able to ground load

I don't know if this is special or not but round 8 or something like that (my teams first round) at SVR was a 70-70 tie. It was pretty high for a tie, at least I thought it was.

After looking over your spreadsheet, I noticed an error (I think).
For the Midwest Regional, I believe in Qualification Match 50, our team along with 71 and 2410 scored a total of 111 points.

Unless I have my numbers wrong...

I'm resubmitting corrected scores, thanks to eagle eyes out there. As always, I welcome messages sent to me about corrections.

Although that was hella fun (props to both 2949 and 71), that was the highest in qualifications, but is nothing compared to the 143 that 1625, 2826 and 1367 put up in the elims (this score is on the sheet).

ah, I see. I didn't realize the Qualification high scores he had was combining both alliances. That makes more sense. And that match was a lot of fun :D

The scores have been crazy at MSC, including what appears to be the highest losing score: Q25 2767 326 68 vs 1528 3539 1718 109-106 (!!) I have no idea if this also breaks the record for the highest combined score, but it's pretty impressive.

Crazy indeed! Every match so far (33 of 128 total) has had a combined score of 65 or more, with only 4 with a combined score of less than 100. Incredible...

In the Greater Toronto East Regional, in Quarters 1 Match 1, team 1503, 1114, and 1482, scored 147-0.

That is an incredible feat...but I think the thing we overlook is the goose egg. While the win is nice, you get no RP's out of that. The match mentioned above where 106 was the losing score...that is HUGE for RP's.

Yes, I believe so... 215 is the highest combined, done now three times (once at Troy).... We've done it twice in two matches... The match we played in before was 118-97... Only at the Michigan State Championships can you score over 90 and lose....
