Maximum Score

[Aignam]

Has anyone figured out the maximum score that an alliance can score in a single match?

Sorry if this question has already been presented. I searched the term 'maximum score' and found nothing relevant.

[HolyMasamune]

the highest plausible score a team could get is 410, with 10x5 balls and 2x10 balls with a 2x multiplier in the mobile goal, 13x5 balls, 2x10 balls (stolen from the other team), and a 2x multiplier in the stationary goal and then 2 robots hanging on the bar at the end

that is unless some team can manage to balance the 2x ball on one pvc

The maximum score is dependant on the number of balls that can fit in the movable and stationary goals. If you figure that out, use a scoring program like this to figure the max score out. Also, there is a difference between the max score that is possible for one team, and winning while getting the maximum ranking points (losers score). In that case, it would be:
(maxscore / 2) + 10 for your score and
(maxscore / 2) - 5 for their score
If I am thinking correctly, with you having a 2x multiplier for the one ball difference and them not.

what if you could put two 2X balls on top of a goal?? would that multiply by four? it is possible to do...since the pvc bends, you could get one ball into the goal and balance another on top...

well i assume u dont mean ur QPs which would be ur oppenents score. if u win that is all the matters

Let's avoid this particular discussion here.

560 If you can fit an infinite amount of balls into your two goals. If you score 2, 10pt balls. And 12 starting human player balls right?

[KenWittlief]

theres 18*5 in the ball release = 90
theres 6 starter balls per side * 5 = 30
theres 2 release balls per side * 10 = 20

thats 140 in small balls

double them all, that 280

hang both bots, that 380 points for 'your side' of the field

assuming you want you opponent to score high and leave them alone

if not, you cant get all 52 small balls in play into your two goals (the two goals can hold approx 35 balls) - so the absolute max score depends on that limtation.

The 10 ball doesn't get doubled?

12 balls will fit in a mobile goal?!

the mobile goal will hold around 12 or 13

the big one, 23 to 25 (rough estimate without trying it yet)

Why wouldn't it?

It seems as though most of you are missing something. You want to win to advance and the points you get are the losers. So you would need to figure not the max amount of points you can accumulate during a match, but the max amount of points you can get to beat your opponent by only 20 points assuming all balls are scored and multiplied and all robots are hanging.

This would work out as:
Your alliance - (19 x 5 + 20(bonus balls)) x 2(multiplier) + 2 hanging = 330 pts
Their alliance - (17 x 5 + 20(bonus balls)) x 2(multiplier) + 2 hanging = 310 pts
your max points = 310 pts and the win of course

Yes, well I wasn't sure since you didn't double the 2, 10pt balls in your totals.
