Re: Optimal Characteristics for Pilots?
I think we can all agree that priority 1 is a sweet costume. No team garbage either. IF you don't have a vest, top hat and goggles or at least SOME brass, I, for one, will be very disappointed.
In addition, the pilot should:
- Understand the game, and know their role in it - They need to not just watch their own robot. There are potentially 3 robots dropping gears, and only two pilots, so you'll need to pick gears from another team's robot.
- Not sweat too much - you drop your handle, and it's gone, baby! Maybe we need a hand signal. Also, it could be very disappointing to teams that just dropped a gear off to see you misplace it over the edge.
- The accent is important. Not cockney, but close?
- Some understanding of strategy - perhaps it's not always best to spin the gears up immediately after placing them? Perhaps it's not always best to place them immediately after getting them? Perhaps a spinning rotor is some information that you may not want to give your opponent?
