Re: Poor team scouting methods?

our scouters are amazing at what they do. They have a system set up of 5 scouts and 1 head scout, who are each assigned to watch one robot during a single match. They record various characteristics... like driver experience, how much 'fumbling' they do while picking up the ball, average hurdling/lap times, amount of defense played on them, etc. our goal with the scouting thing is to pick out the best robots from the crowd, so if a good team gets paired with an incompatible alliance against a dominating alliance, the one good team will still get recognition amongst our scouters.

Its a neat system, and all without computers- its all paper, pencil, and mind!
