Interesting. I've always thought that stuff like this would show up in the other stats, i.e. if a robot was badly driven it would score less tubes.

I know you guys have awesome scouting (I vaguely remember having a qualifying match with your team in 2009 that went very well because of it) so thanks for the detailed post explaining your methodology.

Scouting is what makes a good team great!
