Posting from the hotel @ St. Louis
after the practice matches, it looks like the game is going to be
extremely low scoring. Even in practice matches (with no defense), most games were under 60 points.
45 and 148 seemed to be really good. I saw a couple robots with fast drivetrains but nonfunctional arms yet, so tomorrow and saturday should be interesting. The main weakness seems to be teams requiring close proximity to the rack in order to score (we even got tangled up in there once or twice, haha).
best of luck to all the teams competing!
