I am in charge of scouting for our team, and we take it very seriously. We have six people watching each match in order to record exactly what happens, and then this information is entered into a database. Team members are also assigned specific teams to check up on and become friends with. Before each match, I go and talk to the drive team and tell them about our teammates (if in quals) and opponents, and give them advice on game strategy. I think and hope they find it very informative. We also have a very comprehensive pick list, which we debate for long times over. This year, for the first time we worked together with team 558 the Devil Dawgs at our regional and shared scouting information.
I think that scouting is the most important part of a regional, and it is important to come prepared. Practice scouting by watching webcasts and filling out forms before your regional. If any of your teams are in pre-ship streamed events or early regionals, take advantage and watch them. It can be make a good robot even better knowing what is coming and what strategies should be used.
