Numbers for thought: Are 10 black balls worth 30 seconds?

Posted by Carlos Rodriguez at 1/10/2001 11:32 PM EST


Engineer on team #537, Domo ARIGATO, from Sussex Hamilton HS and GE Medical Systems.




Joe Balint and Team #537 would like a scoring check on the following:

Doing some quick numbers comparing the cost of 30 seconds to 10 black balls.

Scenario: 2 goals on balanced bridge, 4 large balls on goals, 4 robots in endzone.

Points:
a)
w/ 31sec left 80x4x2=640

b1)
add 10 balls and subtract 30 second to/from a)
w/ 1 sec left 90x4x1.5=540

In this scenario it would take 27 total black balls to offset the 30 second loss.

b2)
add 27 balls and subtract 30 seconds to/from a)
w/ 1 sec left 107x4x1.5=642

+10% to all scores
Any comments from the Teams?
