Go to Post In my opinion, I wouldnt want gifts or praise from people about my help to a robotics team, all I would want is a thank you, that would make all my hard work and efforts worth while and it would prove to me that I could actually be making a difference in the students lives - Mike Schroeder [more]

Re: A statistical analysis of the "autonomous advantadge"

If an alliance can fire 30 balls into the center goal in the ten seconds of auton mode, and your side cannot score well in auton mode, then yes, the game is pretty much over

but thats the extreem - Im referring to more evenly matched games, where both sides have a chance of winning.

If your bot cannot fire into the goals reliably in auton mode then you might be better off not firing at all. In fact if you are sure your side will loose auton mode you might be better off if none of your bots fire.

Because:

1. your bots can get into scoring position during auton, knowing you will be on the offense

2. if your opponents fired 30 balls they only have ten left in their corrals, so they cannot reload all three robots, Plus they have to keep a backbot on the opposite side, so they only have two bots on their side at a time to play defense AND to be reloaded

3. Your team has 30 balls in their robots, and 40 seconds to score (instead of just 10), so you have a better chance of making your shots count. As each one fires off its shots it can go back to your side to be reloaded AND to get ready to play defense.

the point is, if your bots cannot shoot well in auton mode you might be better off using that time to get field position for your 40 S of offensive play, and you could very well come out better in the end.
