Scary Awesome Autonomous Modes

[Aren_Hill]

at wisconsin us 1625 and wildstang along with 1816(playing d)
us and wildstang shooting high center we made either 18 or 20 like 4 times in a row it was amazing when it counted we ended up with 71 after the bonus

Before 195 and 25 started gunning for us, 1126 and 201 managed to put up a whole lotta balls in Einstein Semifinal 2-1. We were more than half way to 100 by the time auto ended. Once they started playing full-on-defensive autonomous, things weren't as spectacular, but oh boy did those balls fly. A few even fell out the goal was so jammed. Watch it here

Nice work 1126 and 201, you guys were amazing in both autonomous and human control.

I know this is a little late in posting but 33 233 and 1902 had a pretty cool autonomous mode during the finals matches at nationals. I'm not a programming guy so i was in awe of what these 3 teams were able to coordinate.

About 50 points in Autonomous hooah

There has to be other well coordinated "scary awesome" autonomous modes like these, it would be interesting to see or hear about some of the better of the three. I'm not talking about single performance, more of a coordination from the three robots, where they are working in concert with each other.

This is my nomination whats yours?

Dan I didn't realize you put this out there. I just tonight put a similar one.

I also remember seeing team 254, 987, and 66 all shoot for the center goal during autonomous in qualifying match # 71 on the Newton field. It was simply amazing. Here is a link to the match: NewtonMatch71

I saw this post while on vacation, so I uploaded this photo of the incident.

After getting hit, and tipped, TerMOEnator began shooting 5 for 5 in the center goal. It certainly surprised us, and most of the other folks in the stands. One mentor from Team 291 yelled "MOE, what do you have in that thing?" It's actually a tribute to the quality of our programming team that things like this happen (i.e., autonomous mode is disrupted, but the program compensates and recognizes that the robot is aligned for scoring).

Edit: I should also mention the great sportsmanship shown by the Rambunctions Rams (462) competition team, who immediately backed away after autonomous, rather than risk tipping MOE over.
