Re: YOU Predict the Average Match Score of 2012's Week 1 Regionals

There are a lot of similarities between 2006 and 2012, but I would argue on the whole the 2012 is a much more technically challenging game with fewer opportunities for points. On the flipside, penalties add points to the other alliance's score.
Also remember there was a 25 point bonus for 3 robots on a ramp in 2006.

This game is a lot harder, but with the penalty offset I think 40 is a reasonable score for week 1 quals at good events.
2x(2+3) auto = 12pts
6 balls in telop = 12pts
1 bot ramp = 10pts
2 fouls = 6pts
Total = 40
