Is max score even possible?

On the contrary, I think the only way we'll see it break 300 is with defense. Really, really bad defense.

Without that though, it seems quite unlikely in standard play. I think it basically necessitates the other alliance screwing up/breaking down in some way. If it does happen, I think it's more likely in MSC quals than in elims basically anywhere.

MSC will for sure have plenty of high scores all through qualifications and elims. I think that it is very likely that we will for sure see 250, and possibly 290+ there with the alliances that will be made.

Lets say you're at Quals at either MSC/CMP/IRI- you have two really good teams that got lucky to be together, along with a third, decent bot that could be an alliance captain at a smaller regional. They score amazingly- say 250/260 pts- except that one of the 10 pt climbers was hit by an opposing robot while they were climbing- BAM 300 pts due to the 20pt tech foul and automatic 30 pt climb.
I think an alliance will hit it in Quals, with fouls, but not in elims anywhere nor at any regional.
Just my two cents.
