Re: Qualification Seeding Question

Scores are counted by the weight of the discs that are in the goals. There's no way to subdivide the scores per team.

The wording is similar to last year's rules:

The FMS will rank all teams in decreasing order, using the following sorting criteria:
1st order sort Qualification Score
2nd order sort Cumulative sum of Hybrid Hoop points
3rd order sort Cumulative sum of Bridge points
4th order sort Cumulative sum of Teleop Hoop points
5th order sort Random sorting by the FMS
The scores that were summed up last year were based on the alliance scores, not the individual team scores.

Incidentally, this is the genesis for the rule that disallows a team from competing and earning qualification points until they pass inspection. A few years ago a team ended up in the top 8 having never put their robot on the field - they got a lucky string of good alliance partners that pushed them up in the rankings.
