Re: General Scouting Help Needed
Just remember that when you are scouting that you turn the information into something that your driveteam can actually use. Believe me, they will not be going through 80 notecards in order to find out if one bot has any traction. Especcially if they only have 7 minutes to plan their stratigy. You might be able to eliminate the paper quite a bit if you have something like the head scout collect and memorize all the scouting info that the team can gather, and then shadow the drive team with the note collection. And if any scouting information is needed, they shold know where to find it.

Just make sure that you turn the information into something the drive team can use or there's not really a point to scouting. Have fun!
