Re: Significance of the Human Player
Everyone on 639's pretty PO'd about the amount of human involvement this year. Of course, our team hasn't been around that long, so we haven't seen some of the competitions you guys are talking about, but I think the emphasis should be on the robot, as in FIRST Robot ics. Talking about working together is all fine and good, but the fact remains that teams with better human players will have an advantage over other teams. To my understanding, after a quick once-over of the rules, a team could use the mobile goals to make it easier to sink shots, but this takes time, while a team with a good human player could just be feeding them balls. Of course, 639 might just be freakin out about this because we're all...dare I say...NERRRRDS! But I'd hate to see a team win it just because their HP can "sink a jumper from half court".
