I was referring to his prediction of the average score.

This is a screenshot of the score to show how many points were scored in an early match at the Suffield Shakedown to refute Car Nack's prediction.
While it isn't much higher than 13 - 3, I will now predict that the average match score will be a combined score of 30 in the first week, rising to 60 by the last week, and hitting over 100 for the Eliminations at the Championship Event.

The automated real time scoring system appears to be working just fine so far.
They have a clever set up if you get a chance to see it up close.

The quality of the robots at this scrimmage was less than usual. There were many no-shows and only 13 teams in the finals.
The snow storm last week locked some teams out of their schools for four days including the second to last weekend.
This is a crucial weekend.
It is too bad that FIRST decided not to give a few days grace for some of these teams as they have in the past. Given that we now bag and tag, rather than ship and lade, this would be easy to have done.
