Re: Launcher Accuracy Graph

When using such a graph for strategy discussions, don't forget to identify areas where robots can shoot without real impediment, and take them into account in your discussions. Examples: Zone near wall in 2011, Key in 2012, touching pyramid and loading zone in 2013. I don't know of any similar zones in previous years.

Another factor is the variability from piece to piece. The balls in 2012 were highly susceptible to wear; the discs in 2013 were remarkably durable, consistent and predictable. The variations from piece to piece will affect how valuable such adjustments will be.

FIRST is not rocket science. But it is like drinking from a fire hose.
