At first, I was blown away by the idea that half of the teams plan to climb for 30 points. We aren't one of them. We're going for 10.

I agree that many will try, some will succeed. But I also wanted to point out that the teams represented in the survey may not accurately represent all teams in FIRST. Typically the teams that post on CD are the more active and ambitious teams. There are many teams that struggle, and they probably won't do a lot of climbing or posting on Chief Delphi. So my guess is that the actual percentage of 30 point climbers will be significantly lower.
