Re: the hardest part of logo motion

Assuming you're in the driver's station, scoring logos in front of yourself the From Right to left: Triangle, Circle, Square, Triangle, Circle, Square.

And if you can't remember that, think of it like this: The Circle always goes on the highest peg of the row, then to it's left is a square and to the circles right is a triangle. (Again, if you're in the driver's station scoring on yourself.)

If you're really in a pinch, look at your opponents peg board, and do the opposite.

Re: the hardest part of logo motion

if this is an issue I recommend just taping some symbols to the driver console in the correct order as a reminder.

Re: the hardest part of logo motion

We messed up once in two competitions. It isn't that hard to remember, but it happens.
Backwards logos are more fun anyways =P

Now that I've thought about it more, if my drivers need a reminder on what order to score tubes in, I'd probably start looking for new drivers...

Yeah that is what helped me pick our final drivers, one alway forgot the logo. I haven't ever had to tell our driver where to place a tube.

Don't know the logo, go scout and learn it for off-season!
