The spreadsheet model evolved a lot over time. The version that made the tech binder is close to the "final" version we had (from near the end of build season), before we started to see the game played for real.
It was interesting to watch the model evolve over time. We initially severely underestimated pedestal lighting/ball return time, as well as the ability of the average team to acquire assists fairly quickly by inbounding. As a result, on day one, one robot hurdling, self-catching, and scoring was looking pretty tempting.
