Game piece inflation
At the Michigan Center Line District event the game pieces were so inflated they were actually squarish. We asked about it and the officials said they had inflated it to the specification of the field reset guide. We designed our robot to pick up 25" (+/- 1") balls as were explained by the GDC. We even underinflated and what we considered to be overinflated some ball in practice. But many of the robots at our event had significant difficulty picking up the balls cleanly. I was surprised that there isn't a sizing box!
Were they like that everywhere?
