I know it was discussed here in CD and I didn't make my statement clear, sorry. What I meant was that each team in FRC should have read, talked about, and understood all of the implications involved in scoring this year so that they can come to the event(s) that they participate in, prepared. ChiefDelphi is an excellent resource but I don't know that every team in FRC reads it. It is up to each team to make sure that they read the manual, study the rules, and understand them. Hopefully, more teams will be taking advantage of that opportunity before the upcoming competitions, and will be better prepared as teammates and as alliance partners for the rest of the season.
Aside: We can talk and natter and squabble about the best teams/top teams all day long, year after year, and it is silly. This is an example of why - they come to the competition prepared to play.
