We just attended the Chesapeake regional and it came to mind that while an alliance is assesed penalties that affect the score, is there a statistic for individual team penalties.
I tried to scout with that stat but couldn't find it unless I just asked the teams.
For example, 2199 was penalty free for 8 matches made 7 -8 laps per match, and could effectively knock balls of the overhead. Unfortunately lots of teams could lap and knock the ball off. We tried to press the fact that we were penalty free but I think if that stat was available overall it would influence alliance picks.
This has been a penalty ridden game and I think a large percentage of matches were determined by penalty. I have no regrets and I'm very proud of what our team accomplished this year, but if I were a team going to the championships I would definitely like to have this statistic, especially considering how many teams I'd have to scout to get it.
Thoughts?
