Would about 50 pts per robot generally win qualification matches?

It really depends on the State. In Arizona, in the beginning of the season, for this game, yes, to a point. (Depending who you were with, or going against.)

Give it another month, and 50 points will probably be nothing.

Any good rookies?

All of the "rookies" this year were older teams, with a new set of students. (We didn't have any 5 digit numbers at this qualifier)

How did team's numbers on the robot generally look?

Alot of people don't follows the rule numbers in the manual. My team for example, just sharpied on our numbers. Give us another month, and a complete bot, and we will have the robot painted and vinyl numbers/sponsors. But thats the higher end teams.

How many teams had carts to move their robot to and from the field?

My team was the only one at this event. Both of my teams have a cart, each with thier own numbers. Depending on the venues, you may have a distance to walk. At the event this weekend, the pits were a mere 30 steps away.

Looking forward to competing in two weeks.

I have no clue how MI competitions are, but we wish you luck!
