Re: Human Player: Past, Present and Future

I'm Human Player for my team this year, so forgive me if i'm a bit biased =p. I think this year's involvement was at the right level. The HP is kept pretty active (as long as your team uses the manual loading station), but wasn't the only scoring source like last year. I agree with the fact that the robot should be the one scoring points, not the human player, because this lowers the standard of the quality of the bot needed to succeed in the game. As for this year, the "safety issues" are not really issues as long as you know what you're doing. The responsibility of the HP is to know the rules and know how to get their job done, safely. It really isn't very hard to do. If being human player is causing you problems with safety, maybe you should analyze how you're playing the game and come up with something new.
