Go to Post Earlier today, I finally saw a copy of the [WFA] essay that was submitted by my team (there will be a separate reckoning later with all those that kept this a secret from me). The narrative overwhelmed me. - dlavery [more]

Re: What autonomous modes will teams have?

I'm thinking we'll see at least one alliance have a robot (most likely the alliance captain) place 2 gears, while the robot that doesn't score a gear uses a cheesecake mechanism to drop the gear off and score a 40kpa auto.

That was a favorite of mine, too. I am pretty sure my team used it at least once!

Unfortunately, our auto mode programmers never figured out how to evade the defense you were playing there.

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.

Re: What autonomous modes will teams have?

Happy Dance is indeed a good one, but Flower Pot is my favorite back up mode. Because when running the auto code puts you at a disadvantage, it's nice to be able to disable it.

For some reason, I haven't even been thinking about what other teams might be doing in autonomous. We have enough trouble figuring out how to get more than 5 points.
