Einstein Field issues Handled correctly?

[MarkoRamius1086]

I believe we need to go back to the videos, the full and unclipped videos, if such things exist, and look and see exactly who had issues and when they had issues. I was not there and the webcasts were focusing only on the robots that were functioning, so attempting to see who was not functioning was... near impossible.

And partially related to that note, was there a strategic reason that "Team Canada" was not doing the triple balance like they had done so many times reliably and flawlessly in their division? I have been hearing of definite issues with something on the 118 scene, and slight hints at something with 1114.

Bryan Culver:
While this problem has been brought to light by the Einstein matches I do not think it is new. At MSC 33 died in the semis about 3 seconds into teleop. In the finals 67 had similar looking drop outs although I cannot confirm that it was in fact an identical problem. 1114 also seemed to have issues although those could be on the robot side (Both 67 and 1114 were connection issues.) Perhaps we, as a community, should begin documenting all of these failures throughout the season in order to identify patterns and the actual quantity of failures. It is easier to accept there is a problem when you have data to back it up and with many examples of failure to look through it would hopefully make identifing the problem that much easier.

Absolutely true and beautifully said. The first step is who, what, and where. The details, not the speculation.
