How does your team plan on acquiring points this year?

Hey guys, to try and help gauge where everyone else is at, I've created a straw poll that should cover all of the possible strategies that teams would be using this year to acquire points. Let me know what you think!

Re: How does your team plan on acquiring points this year?

Hi! Welcome to the forum and nice idea to make a poll. I would just suggest that in the future you make the pole using the built-in feature on Chief Delphi. When making a new thread, simply check the box under "Post a Poll" and specify the amount of options. You'll be prompted for the actual pole options once you submit the thread. Its just nicer to have everything on the same site.

I did notice that, however I posted that poll to Reddit as well. I understand the desire to keep it all on Chief Delphi, but I wanted to minimize how much I split the poll up.

Good idea. So far, the results are about what I would expect.

Re: How does your team plan on acquiring points this year?

I believe that a lot of people are in agreement that people want to push for the totes and bins and then worry about the litter as something as a side note. To be honest you will score so much more points worryings about the tote and bin combinations because of how it is set up on each level and your max points for each stack.

To be honest a lot of teams should think about doing coopertition points and using the yellow bins with your whole team for auto, and then in competition going for the 4 yellow bin stack for at least 40 points for both teams.

Our team at Plasma is working toward actually going for every point possible, and I am not sure that TNA (The Noodle Agreement) will survive Q&A and be changed, or be changed after week 1.

Go for the totes/bins, and worry about the "litter" later. Get your max points possible.
