being partners

Student on team #192, Gunn Robotics Team, from Henry M. Gunn Senior High School. In Reply to: consistancy Posted by Joe Ross on 2/5/2001 1:32 AM EST: : For the elimination rounds, as long as you have a specialty, you will be a valuable partner. I am not so sure about that. Besides being a special robot, you will ALWAYS need to work well along with other robots to be part of an alliance. Say you can put small balls in a goal by tipping it over, then that's a special robot. But when you are tipping the goal over and it gets in the way of other robot all the time, chances are, other teams are not going to pick you. Well, this is just an example anyway... I am sure teams are going to design their robot so they won't be "in the way" of other robot. But since teams don't know what kind of robot other people will be building, it's pretty hard to design robots to work together perfectly. That's why top seed teams are going to pick partners when going into finals... they will just have to rely on chances that there is this robot somewhere out, and that robot will be perfect together in an alliance. -Ken Leung I am all for prefect alliance and not perfect individual robots. |
