Re: YOU Predict the Average Match Score of 2011's Week 1 Regionals

I get 41 per alliance.

I'd like to think that each alliance would have 1 robot capable of scoring a ubertube in autonomous.

Looking at 2007, I'd say two tubes per robot per match would be a reasonable estimate, seeing as most of the defense won't occur when teams are scoring. I figured on average they'd score on the middle row, and get 1 logo bonus (again, on the middle row). Figure one successful working minibot per match, which is 30 points half the time, so 15.

At BAE in 2007, with the rack swinging and defense, 2 tubes in a match made a top 20% robot. Seeing as the "feet" on the pegs are smaller, and there won't be defense when robots are in the act of scoring, I think teams will do a little better.
