Go to Post The part I like best is your method of transfering the torque via the balls. Very elegant. - Joe Johnson [more]

From what I've found working at 3 competitions (1 field reset & 2 reffing), having 140 (not including spares) works best. That way, you can have the 6 robots fully load up the 60 balls while they're cuing without stealing balls from the field. This alone can shave off a minute or two from each match's setup time.
