Go to Post One thing that always strikes me at FRC competitions is seeing the little nerds reveling in the same kind of self-celebrating bravado the high school jocks have always indulged in. - gvarndell [more]

True, I did leave that out, but I guess we could include the robots that do that in the "turret" category because what I'm really looking for is how many teams will be up against the boiler when shooting.

Oops. I already selected "fixed and a single position that is not the boiler" before I read this lol. We will be able to shoot from multiple positions and angles without a turret.

Haha, it's all good. I made his in the heat of the moment to figure some stuff out for what I needed. The only relevant data here is the fact that you're up against the boiler or you're not. The other is just extra in case I need it for some reason.
