Re: [FTC]: Looking for FTC Event Data

Could anyone who has been to one of the qualifying competitions give a report on how the game is being playing and developing so far? The report/spreadsheet at the FIRST website shows a very wide range of high scores, but doesn't say how the scores are being made. It appears that a few teams are racking up huge scores, but others struggle to score at all. Here are some things I am curious about:

- Are any teams able to score in autonomous?
- Are any teams following the IR beacon?
- Is anyone using the corner peg multiplier?
- What types of lifts work best?
- What types of grippers work best?
- Are any offense strategies developing?
- Are any defense strategies developing?
- Are there any successful lifters or just ramps?
- How high are robots getting lifted?
- How much of the scoring is rings vs. lifting?
- What percentage of robots can consistently hang a ring?
- Are penalties playing a big role?
- Do you like this game?
- Would you like to see any refinement to the rules?
- Any standout teams (rings/lifting)?
- Any good stories or video?

Please post your opinions and experiences!
