Re: Week 2: So how's that Field Working?
I was at the NJ Regional doing Field Repair & Reset
Scoring issues were rampant;
The end goals were close to being reliable but there was 4 volunteers station at each of the end goals to do manual scoring
During some of the matches the team numbers & ranks would not show up when the final score was displayed
During the finals matches the score would be 35 to 55 but after no penalties were deducted the score would be 35 to 0, which would confuse the MC's and referees constantly
As for the field;
The field remained in good condition the carpet suffered maybe 2 - 4 small tears in it.
The poof balls were also in pretty good condition: out of all the robots running over them & shooters shooting them the NJ regional only had to replace a box and a half full (however many comes in a box) which isn't bad considering 63 robots were using them constantly throughout the 3 days.
As for the poof balls getting caught up in the center goal there were not many problems with it maybe once or twice 2 balls got caught up on one another and didn't drop right away but the field manager stationed one volunteer on each end to release balls.
