Re: Scouting program in the works, need ideas!

[quote=apalrd;905445]
We asked the scouts (freshman) to total the tallies at the end, so the data enterers would not have to, but being freshman they didn't. [quote]

I think of of the most important aspects a scouting system should have is clearity. One thing that I have learned from working with scouts is that errors are usually due to misunderstanding rather than just being lazy. Clear instructions and layout of the paper should be a priority. If it is not, then you will likely get bad data. Bad data is far far worse than no data.

As for the proposed scouting system, I would add something for autonomous mode. Mainly where they start and what did they do.
