Re: Predicted Match Scores at Championships

Color me an optimist, but I'm betting we'll see at least a few matches with >120 points. The breakdown on that would be either all three are 3-level climbers (for 90 points) plus scoring everything in the pyramid and some during autonomous, or an alliance that scores 6-8 discs in the high goal for 36-48 points, plus a killer teleop and at least one 30-point climber.

I'm betting that there will be some truly amazing teams on the field this year (beyond just the usual excellence). The combination of some pretty severe size constraints will lead to some very innovative mechanisms.

That being said, I'm betting that the highest scores at CMP won't happen on Einstein. Probably in a division eliminations match or by random chance in qualifications (I suppose this is probably just a general thing though).

I'm really excited to watch the Elim matches this year. I have a feeling they'll be very, very exciting.
