2014 Arial Assist Score Calculator

otherguy,
This calculator looks pretty sound. I do have a few suggestions about things that must be considered for match scoring. Under section 3.1.4 the manual states

"Points are awarded once per CYCLE for BALLS SCORED by ROBOTS in the GOALS, BALLS SCORED by ROBOTS over the TRUSS, and for each ROBOT CATCH. Additional points are credited to an ALLIANCE upon each GOAL based on the number of ASSISTS earned by the ALLIANCE for that CYCLE."

This means that assists, truss scores, and catches are not added to the alliance score until the cycle is completed. I believe that if the match were to end mid-cycle, none of the assist, truss, or catch points would count towards the final score.
A sheet taking this into account may consist of a section for scores from the auto period for each robot and then a separate section for points scored in each cycle.

I'm of the understanding that truss & catch points will count regardless of whether or not the ball is scored. Assist points, however, are only applied to scored balls.
