Raul,
We only had nine balls in the goal. We were loading 11-12 usually but to get under a minute we were pushing it to get nine. At the UTC regional they basically did the same strategy but got the 12 balls needed to get the 520 points. We could do the same with a little practice but time is so crucial. If you guys haven't played yet, try to take advantage of the time multipliers. I think we all realize how important they are but you really start getting a feel for it in competition. Especially in the early rounds when the students aren't quite familar with the stop buttons yet. I can't wait to see your robot at the nationals. The ramp design should prove to be most helpful to teams. Good Luck!!
Mike Carron
