scouting in sports is done for lots of reasons... one reason is to sign a player... another more common form of scouting is to prepare your team for the strengths and weakesses of your opponent. (think of football players spending long hours disecting the game film of this week's opponent)

both cases have this in common: you're evaluating someone or something.

and isn't that really what we all scout for as well? on 180, our scouting crew doesn't just scout our opponents. we also look at our alliance partners, too. heck, we even scout ourselves... it's great to know everyone's strengths and weaknesses, including your own, so that you can make an informed decision when it comes time to make up a strategy.

in short, scouting is a fine term... it isn't broke and it doesn't need fixing.
