Re: IRI - 2015 Rule Modification Ideas?

Change tote scoring.

Make a stack of 1 tote worth 1 point. A stack of 2 totes worth 4 points. A stack of 3 totes 9 points. A stack of 4 12 points, A stack of 5 15 points, and a stack of 6 18 points. That way teams have some incentive to make stacks without caps. Because with totes only worth 2 points there are diminishing returns in adding more totes to the field.

Oh yeah and no yellow card on G6-1. You can keep the foul though, thats fine. And red card if egregious or repeated.

Re: IRI - 2015 Rule Modification Ideas?

Go back to the best of 3 tournament setup for playoffs, and remove fouls for transferring yellow totes across the step. Stacks greater than 6 should count, in the spirit of 1671's practice day 10-stacks at the Sacramento Regional. Autonomous should be worth more, maybe double the current point values.

Re: IRI - 2015 Rule Modification Ideas?

Flip the upside down totes, remove the step, and place the RCs on top of the totes while making it illegal to cross over the tape line marking the opposing team's landfill.

During eliminations first alliance with three golden totes on the step earns a 30 point bonus.

Re: IRI - 2015 Rule Modification Ideas?

More RCs in play somehow--either on the step or gifted to the alliances beforehand.

Some verbiage so incidental objects supporting totes and RCs such as tethers, driver's buttons, noodles, etc still make the stack count as scored.

Keep noodle throwing IMO.

Allow each alliance to field one Aerial Assist robot and ball per match to shoot across the field.

I choose 195.

Re: IRI - 2015 Rule Modification Ideas?

Allow teams to end their half of the match early to receive a score multiplier.

Can I revert my launcher to how it was at Wk 0? Cuz I'm pretty sure we could get that thing to pinball around the field a few times.

Re: IRI - 2015 Rule Modification Ideas?

So in another honest one, remove the extra 5 lbs you usually allow teams to use. This year that 5 pounds could turn every single match at IRI into a can war, which would be awful.
