A couple notes on the data I posted:

1) It is data from the qualification matches only.
2) It was not intended to prove that there were problems at any regional. I noticed this discrepancy and merely posted the data to stimulate some discussion.

I have a question though, after reading through this thread. What can a team do when they have a pre-match checklist, go through and make sure everything is plugged in and it all checks out, and then get on the field and can't establish communication? I know this was the case for our team in our last qualification match at station Blue 2. The "solution" was that our robot was disabled before the match and the match was played. In fact, the field team at Chesapeake seemed to be assuming that communication problems were robot-side. Our team couldn't do anything to prevent and/or fix the problem and the people running the field can't be expected to troubleshoot every robot that can't establish communication. What can we do in this kind of "no-fault" situation that left all of the students on our team feeling dejected and helpless?

Also, if anyone has comprehensive scouting data for the Chesapeake event, I would like to take a look at it. I would need the points scored by individual robots (not teams, would like to eliminate HP points) correlated to a match number. From there, I could look for correlation between non-functioning robots and the station they were at.
