Ultimately our solution to this annual problem is creating something of a showcase video. Instead of showing off cool features of the robot, gear the video towards robot strategy and abilities. In some cases the video could be of a continuous video of a robot shooting in the goal to show accuracy. Other videos may be exactly how your robot picks up off the ground and how you deposit it back on the ground (or onto another robot). The possibilities are endless. I want to know what everybody thinks of strategic videos, and I'd like to know other solutions to communication between alliance partners. (Sorry the post is so long )

This is very very true that teams over exaggerate their abilities. I honestly like this idea a lot as I am a scout myself. However, I have no idea how this could catch on and how teams would follow through with all of this.
