Re: Galileo 2012 - Share your scouting data !
Call me crazy, but I think the picking order on Galileo made little sense. Why did 25 slide to fourth selection? Why was 2054 a second round pick? 103 not picked?? They were awesome at shooting from the back of the key - a perfect supplement to those front-key shooters out there.
I am surprised to see that 3322 was ranked so high (11th place) on lists that only took number of points scored into account, as we had died after hybrid in two of our matches. Looking at 2377's data, we had the most accurate hybrid in the entire division. I was confident we'd get picked early, but I guess the top teams had other strategies in mind. Instead we got the thrill of getting picked last!
Can teams please at least have one person watching matches to figure out who to pick? You don't even need to collect hard data. Just watching enough matches and scrawling down notes will give you an idea of the best robots in a division. Add in a couple strategy discussions and you can go down to the field with a pick list that gives you a great chance of succeeding.
Speaking of lists, I left ours somewhere and don't have access to it. Jeff may have his copy though. I remember that 33, 25, 148, 2054, and 180 were in the top 5.
