Scoring Effects
I agree that scoring will tend to go up as the season progresses (it always does), but not necessarily because of the rule. Robots get better. Drivers get better. It will be very difficult to ascertain how much of the increase comes from the rule change itself. The only people at an advantage would be the ones who drew byes the first tournament. Then again, is it possible that the new scoring system will result in different strategies to win that might actually LOWER average scores? I see that as a real possibility, too. If we see a greater increase than normal from 1st to second tournament, perhaps the G & K Committee can devise a weighting system. For now, I suggest we just wait and see...
