you can upload youtube videos,
check out, add or edit your teams page.
teams pages also link to analysis of team's stats.

The way I look at it The Blue Alliance is awesome if you want to go back and see how a team has done,
and chief delphi is great for finding out information. I am not trying to replace what either of these sites offer,
I am trying to provide a different perspective: The team's and robot's. I am trying to fill the gap that is usually overcome by handing out team info sheets at competition. Why not have it all in one place, so that information is actually useful, and you can also quickly evaluate if a robot can actually do what they claim. Info sheets get glanced at, tossed, and then burned. Scouting Pit pages should be looked at prior to every match to quickly evaluate your competition and alliance's.


Feature's coming soon:
full picture service
robot pages
FRC FMS twitter feed updates

if you look at team's stat's there's a few helpful charts there for scouting. This info will be switched over to 2011 come march, and provide real time updates.
I am working into linking into the 2010 twitter feed for right now to provide even more information.

The tool is designed to allow you to quickly evaluate teams you are about to go into competition with. The 2011 data will also allow me to evaluate robots based on minibots, peg scoring, and hopefully autonomous if first supports the twitter feed i proposed.

The hope is to have a pre match tool, where you enter the 6 teams competing and it gives you a hint of what's to come.

I am also working on an alliance selection tool. It seems that alliance's often win and lose based on their 3rd pick, and that is where the most mistakes are made, and where tradition pit scouting actually interfere's with helping them find their best option. I will provide a tool that evaluates your team's needs the potential contribution of all remaining teams. This should help you make the most informed 3rd pick possible and not miss that gold mine team because you were too busy flipping through scouting sheets or excel pages.
