Re: 2232 2017 Scouting

Excel is going to give you more value than forms if you use formulas. I highly recommend it.

Its odd the sheet says "can do x" instead of "did x" or even better yet "x" and a big space for tally marks. Its not about what a team can do, it's what they did. This reminds me of a pit scouting sheet.

If you're going to load data into spreadsheets, consider condensing the collection sheet. Maybe it seems like a good idea to record the day the match is taking place and bumper colors, but by the end of quals that will be over 1000 data points! Just look at the schedule if you need that info.

Also, bianary data is boring to copy into excel. You'll be hitting 1, 0, tab, and enter for hours on end. Spice it up,with some totals! Saying things like "Woah that team scored how many gears?" Is the only joy you get while entering data. Dont deny yourself that opportunity.

I created a release from my scouting system last year. Take away the ranking predictor stuff and it's a fairly accessible easy to replicate system. If you want a paper system with excel based data analysis, give it a look! Feel free to dm me
