Our offseason match is on Blue Alliance yet it doesn't show how many games we played or our performance at all. Not everything makes it to TBA either. Source

Re: Most matches for a robot?

Re: Most matches for a robot?

The 129 includes IRI, Duel on the Delaware, Midknight Mayhem and Ramp Riot for 1640. This does not count for endless drivers practice or pre quals practice matches. Just to be fair.

Here's a useful definition of "official": matches conducted in either a FIRST or offseason competition in which the outcome counted toward either qualifications or elimination standings. That should eliminate practice matches (which I think we should assume are roughly equal for all robots) and other testing which is simply impossible to verify differences among teams. Not interested in differences among venues either as that is highly subjective. (Becca suffered a broken frame and two in-match fuse blow outs not to mention broken arms, etc.)

See my definition below. As for match intensity, what we encountered at Chezy Champs and Madtown was just as intense as any of our regionals.

I'm just interested in the total matches played for comparison. Is there a problem in asking this question?

Not at all. I think it's a great question to ask. I'm just pointing out that the most accurate data (only offical districts, regionals and championships) misses a lot of matches. Including offseason events on TBA (which we agree should count) introduces a significant amount bias as only a minority of offseason events are recorded. I'm not sure we'd be able to get a decent approximation of most matches a robot has played (and that's not even considering the practice match debate!).

Re: Most matches for a robot?

5 years ago where our team participated in one regional for a total of 10 matches, at the BAE systems regional in the Verizon center. This past season, thanks in part to the District Model, our team participated in a total of 11 events, including offseasons.

Week Zero - 6
North Shore - 18
UNH -14
NEDCMP-WPI - 14
Tesla - 15
BattleCry - 12
River Rage - 14
Summer Heat -14
Mainely Spirit- 13
Mayhem in Merrimack - 14
Battle Of the Bay - 14

Grand Total - 150

This increased exposure for students owes great thanks to all of the teams throughout New England ,NEFirst and all of the volunteers who take the time and effort to put these events on. Go First!

New England simply can't be beaten for having a large amount of great offseasons.

TBA seems to catch all of the events on the West Coast. But if someone has other off season events, those should count too. 319 just posted that they had 150 on this year's bot.

Team #1768 played about 75 matches total during the 2015 season. 60 during the official season and about 15 at 1 off season event.

Re: Most matches for a robot?

This year's robot for us served in a LOT of matches, I'm not sure of the exact count, but there were many many matches that were played.

Gull Lake District
Livonia District
Bedford District
Michigan State Championship
World's
IRI
MARC offseason event
Kettering offseason event
Bloomfield Girls offseason event

I believe it was about 145 matches.

After 3 district competitions and 4 offseason events, the 461 bot went through about 92 matches not including practice matches.
