Re: Week 1 Number One Seed Score Average

I think that most are under estimating the scoring potential. I consider us as an average team and feel comfortable sayin we will get 80 points alone. Autonomous works well and cooperation points happen and we would be above the 100 mark by ourselves.

How?
It's easy to talk in terms of points and not really understand what that means. But what do you plan do to every match that will cause your score to be over 80 every match.

Re: Week 1 Number One Seed Score Average

Fair question. And again, not boasting because I think we are just average. Practice driving tells me we can do two stacks of five with RC. WE are close to perfecting 3 yellow tote stack in autonomous, get cooperation points and my points are valid. For us, practice shows we can do above in tele with 15 seconds to spare. Hoping more practice shaves off seconds to complete the rest or do more.

For the record, autonomous scares me more than usual because of what alliance partners say they can do and what happens.

It will be interesting to see possible scenario's like tug of wars for RC's in autonomous and cooperation points. We are considering dropping a 3 tote yellow stack on floor. If other alliance stacks one we'll finish it off. Strategy is in this game big time. And don't get me started on liter possibilities. Lol

Re: Week 1 Number One Seed Score Average

For the record, I'd wager if you were able to pull off an auto stack and 2x5 stacks with containers on top in tele, you would not be considered an average team. If you can do that every match, I'd say you'd be looking at a high placement in most regionals.

While you have to be careful judging from week 0 events, even being conservative, this would definitely not make you an average team...

Re: Week 1 Number One Seed Score Average

VeqIR,
Obviously I would hope you are correct but think you are wrong. When all pans out, we will be the average good bot. The super teams who took it to a whole new level excite me and make me very humble. Einstien will be very impressive this year. Back on point, the real question is what can we expect from the average alliance partner this year? What value do they add in points. I get the impression that most think we will have a weak sisters in every match adding zero. I believe that to be the exception not the rule.

Re: Week 1 Number One Seed Score Average

Are you asking for QA or individual robot score? QA is probably between 80 and 100, Personal is 45-70.

If y'all think most Week 1 events are gonna have more than 12 teams that resemble remote competence in this game, I have some sand in the desert to sell you. You aren't playing against any defense this year, but you are playing on probably the hardest field ever.

Re: Week 1 Number One Seed Score Average

3x 4 tote stacks with rc...90
3/4 coop pts for 30 more
a modest 12 in auto?

Put me down for at least 130 to be the #1 seed.

Maybe I'm biased with the bar so high up in Ontario

Re: Week 1 Number One Seed Score Average

One thing to keep in mind is that the Dallas regional is in Week 1. That'll certainly pull the average up quite a bit for the #1 seeded robots.

Re: Week 1 Number One Seed Score Average

I find it difficult to believe the the #1 seeded robot won't be able to on average score 3 six-tote stacks worth of points as an alliance, even with 2 limited-functionality robots as partners. Add in the coop stack which should be close to 100%:

36 x 3 + 40 = easily 140.

Forget auton points and you should still be scoring 140.

I would be really impressed if any team can consistently make 3 stacks 6 high with a can on top every match.

If you can grab a tote/bin every 6 seconds, it can be done.
