Re: Tips for Team Promotion to Scouts

I know you will probably tell me this is the exception but when you balance on a coop bridge with a high seed alliance and they want to pick you but confuse you with a similar team number that tipped when trying to balance, there's a problem. You are saying to rely on their scouting. I say we didn't distinguish ourselves enough. There were good suggestions in here for doing that. Making our "uniforms" and robot's aesthetics recognizable, showing pictures (should have printed the picture of us balancing and given it to them), something to bring attention to robot when it accomplishes a function, pit board with key important aspects, etc. would all help do this.
