And a 10 point bonus for winning autonomous mode

How long can that ramp be? And how close can the robot get to the hoop?

average score will probably be around 50 points per alliance.

<<<How close>>> I think we decided 5 inches. If the ramp is troughly 45 degrees and 6 inches above the lowest rim...

Before fouls, I'm thinking a week one average of 20 points per alliance per Qualifying round.

The coopertition bridge will be a big reason why it is not higher.

In week 1 I'd predict maybe an average of 30 points assuming at least one robot can score in autonomous(or at least in the bottom hoop), and that the Robots will be designed well enough to score around 10 points in the teleop and that they will be able to balance a single robot on the ramp.

so 8 - 12 for auto
~10 in teleop
and 10 for bridge
so around 30 + any foul points

and that should see an increase to 50 as drivers get more experience with the game and into the eliminations. Should be around 70-80 in the championships as the better designed robots and veteran teams should be able to score/balance much better than teams at the regional event. also the possibility for a 40 point bridge score.

just my two cents on the matter...

Survey says... 15.4 points. I think Jared should get points for predicting his event pretty well (believe that PAH came in aroun 19 pts on average).

My prediction was 13.8 basing it off of previous history. I was a bad FIRST mentor as I kept this value secret as I consider it to have pretty strong strategic value.

How did you guys do?

My original guess that I made shortly after Kickoff (and never posted for similar reasons) was 14 points per match per alliance, with 7.4 points of those coming from scored balls.

Not too bad, although I lost the guessing game for some events if we go by Price is Right rules.

Thanks Art and IKE, interesting to see what the pros think!

I'm actually pretty impressed with the quality of many of the prediction in this thread, predictions between 10 and 20 were common, and that basically covered the range of events we saw.

I guess I never wrote mine down in the thread, but I guessed 12 on a combination of historical data and feel. Once I get the twitter feed (or anyone does) I'll be really interested to see the ball v. balance point balance looked like.

I had rounded my estimate off to 15 points. Fouls adding to the score was a new wrinkle that was hard to predict. I had 2 points on average coming from fouls. Did anyone collect that data? It was very hard to scout.
