Re: Who else uses scouting sheets?

Our strategy director made an attempt at using STAMP. Feeble at best.
When that failed, someone else stepped up to the plate and worked his butt off coordinating the good old sheet scout method, which included pit as well as gameplay sheets which had digital pictures of robot, a field plan to sketch autonomous, comment boxes, and actual match data stuff in spreadsheet form.
His hard work paid off, as we were able to know everything about teams that numbers generated on a computer program could not show. We knew teams weak spots, how to hold off against them, and how to direct our allies to do the same. His sheets proved useful in the seeding matches, but absolutely awesome in the Final matches, where before each pairing we would take out their teams sheets and use them to devise plans, ultimately taking us to the finals (and putting up an awesome fight against the winning alliance, 395/375/1880, in our last round)
