All you would need to do is walk up to the "kiosk" in the front our pit, type in the team number you are looking for, and print out the team description (abilities and other info) You would be able to put a few teams on each page, and you would also be able to look for teams accorinding to different skills. I thought this might come in handy when trying to pick alliance partners.

Along with our complimentary magnetic strategy boards, all of your scouting and strategizing needs would be taken care of by team 195!
I think alot of teams prefer to do their own scouting. I know here on 25, we make our own scouting sheets which collect all of the information we find pertinent, but also ask for a unbiased comparison of the team's robot to our robot, done by the scouter. If you were to include information like that, you would end up distributing biased information and offending many teams. We like to keep our information relatively private, because a good majority of the important informationit is opinion-based.
