Re: [EWCP] 10-30-11 Cast - Scouting
One more line of questioning for the cast. I've seen quality teams have mechanical failures or software/electrical issues in their final qualification match. Do your scouts generally cross them off the list or investigate in the pit the details of the malfunction? Do you take teams at their word when they say the problem will solved or do you ask to see proof? If you're team is the one with the malfunction what can you do to let the other scouts know you'll be ready to play?
Ok, 2 more lines of questioning..
If you're looking to get picked is there anything you can do beyond robot performance to move up someone's pick list? Does going to the pit of the top 8 teams and telling them how good your robot is do any good? Is it reasonable to show off your best feature in your last match or 2 (instead of trying to do everything) if you think you are on the selection bubble.
