Re: [FTC]: Ring It Up! Scoring Potential

All pegs owned on opposing side: (90+240) 330 pts.
Bonus from 6 weighted rings: (20%*6*180) = 216 pts.
Lifting a robot 24”: (30+(23*5)) = 145 pts.

TOTAL = 1071 pts.
Not quite there.

You have 26 Rings of your color. Put 6 of them as weighted rings on the corner goal for a 120% Ring Score + Line Score Bonus. That leaves 2 Auto and 18 Regular. Put 1 regular on each peg, giving a ring score of 180, and a line bonus of 480. The weighted ring bonus adds 120% of 660 (180+480) which gives 792. You also have those 2 autonomous rings and if you put them on the highest row that is also on the IR beacon column, that's another 100 points (not 50). Add in the 145 for lifting your partner 24".

To sum that up, I get:
180 (RING SCORE)
+480 (LINE SCORE)
+792 (WEIGHTED RING BONUS)
+130 (AUTONOMOUS RINGS)
+145 (LIFTING BONUS)
For a grand total of...1,727 Points

Still, completely theoretical.
