Re: Pit Scouting
Whenever I do pit scouting it seems like teams (maybe unconsciously) tend to exaggerate their robots abilities. (Anyone reading this I promise you that pit scouting had no impact on alliance selection, ever.)
The two types of data that I found could be gathered during pit scouting was my observations about their robot (eg: wheel type, # of wheels, cleanliness of wires, first impressions, ect) and info about autonomous mode (eg: you like to start in XYZ zone and do ZYX and can do it ABC% of the time). Everything else was either relative, subject to exaggeration, or just unreliable.
