Re: [FRCTop25.com] Week 4 Results Broadcast LIVE Tonight!

I tweeted the question about what have we learned that we could NOT have predicted at kickoff. Sorry for the ambush.

I think that the GDC must have spent more time trying to figure out how this game could/would be scored real-time than they did designing the game. Once they knew that quadrature detection of scored frisbees was going to be "impossible," it must have been scramble of the year to get a working goal that could score real-time. The fact that we're counting manually afterwards tells me they got close. This is my estimate for the hardest design task this year. Beats climbing for difficulty by quite a ways.
