Re: Is anyone surprised by the scoring in week #1?
I'm certain that no matter what happens, some will be surprised, others will (at least say) that it's exactly what they expected.

I don't see any scores posted on TBA yet, but I just watched a match at Dallas, and it ended up 148 to 36, with 40 of those points for each alliance being a coopertition stack (there were fouls). Most of the points were scored by one robot. That one top-tier robot racked up all those points isn't surprising. That all of the other five did so very little is surprising; I would have expected at least two or three of those robots to be scoring a dozen points or more each.

Addendum: That was followed by a zero-zero match (no scoring, a penalty on each side voided) Wow. It's only the first round; hopefully those eleven teams can make some adjustments!
