A few teams will indeed do 7 consistantly. But, thats about it.

I'm in a similar boat with you, but I think that the absolute upper crust of teams may be able to place 7-9 (I'm talking Beatty, 'Stang, Poofs, Gorillas, Simbots and the select few others on that level). There will probably be 2 or 3 teams at most regionals (and a couple of the smallers regionals might not have any) in the 6-7 range. A majority of good bots will probably get 4-5 on average.
The more good bots together though, the much greater the score. Multiple offensive bots will relieve defensive pressure on eachother, and will make the creation of longer rows much easier. I fully expect the final round rack scoring to be expotentially higher than most qualifying rounds.
