I'll Take
These are the statistics from the following regional finals:
Lone Star Regional: 16 - Ball bot 118 - Goal bot 609 - Goal bot VS 34 - Goal bot 192 - Goal bot 457 - Goal bot Both alliances made it to the finals against other solid goal bot alliances. In our first finals match with them, team 118 lost their half of their drive and couldn't move after grabbing the goals. Team 16 went into goal mode, but the other 2 bots and 118 had ahold of them. We tried our hardest to move the goals but it's very hard to move 3 goals and 3 robots at the same time. BUT if 118 hadn't have lost their drive they would have moved right into scoring position and stayed their plus their tether. Next match, while in the process of picking up balls, team 16 ran into the clamp of 609 which hit the only place on the robot that it could have latched. They had already had a goal but we we're not going anywhere.... 16, 118, and 609 lost in the finals due to some bad luck. St. Louis Regional 16 - Ball bot 343 - Goal bot 869 - Goal bot VS 317 - Goal bot 312 - Goal bot 171 - Mainly goal bot with possibility of a few balls while in tow Entering the finals both alliances were undefeated. In the first match team 312 and 317 both put up a great battle but 343 got to a goal first. Team 16 picked up a few balls and put a few in the goal. The other alliance had two. Team 16 who is just a "ball bot" grabbed one of their goals and held it at home while 343 held the goal with a couple balls in scoring position. They couldn't move 16 or take the goal back into scoring position. HELLO - BALL BOTS CAN BE GOAL BOTS!!!! The next match was very similar except for the fact that team 16 had to play defense and helped in getting the goal (NOPE IN NO WAY ARE WE A GOAL BOT TOO). After team 869 got the goal and was holding it into scoring position, team 16 went and played a little defense before the match ended. Team 16, 343, and 869 win! SO, team 16 (a ball bot) had almost won 2 competitions, but do to mechanical trouble with our allianced GOAL BOTS (not blame but just stating the facts - 118 and 609 are AWESOME) we lost at the Lone Star. From what I've seen team 47, 111, 67, 65, and many other ball bots have made it far into the finals as well. I understand the fact that goal bots are effective in the finals but you have to understand also that being #1 seed allows us ball bots to pick the strongest goal bots. Another little thing: 1 goal + 11 balls > 2 goals Think about it.... especially with 15-25 balls. Tommy --------- Team 16 - Baxter Bomb Squad Last edited by DigitalVector : 10-04-2002 at 12:11. |
