Car Nack Predicts 01/08/07
Car Nack Predicts
The scoring of keepers will be a relative rarity. In fact there will be at least one Regional where there will be a total of less than five keepers scored for the entire competition. Car Nack has spoken |

Re: Car Nack Predicts 01/08/07
Agreed. I believe that scoring keepers is like scoring tetras in the center row in 2005, It gives you an advantage but not many teams were able to do it. The great car nack has a good prediction here.

Re: Car Nack Predicts 01/08/07
I disagree with this one.
While an alliance scoring 3 keepers may be rare I think most matches will have 1 or 2 scored. Scoring keepers will be more like scoring tetras on your home row in 2005. |

I too disagree, now that the camera has become so common in the last few years, I expect that teams more teams will be able to use it effectively.
I predict that in at least one competition, there will be five or less robots that score the keepers not using dead reckoning. |

I think the Great and Wise Car Nack has the gist of it, but I believe that the first robot to get a keeper on the rack will be the only robot to get a keeper on the rack for a given match. After that, there's gonna be wiggleville.

Are you sure about this? The fabrication rules have been tightened up so that you cannot do any SW work at all after ship, except for the fix-it windows.

Re: Car Nack Predicts 01/08/07
I agree somewhere between the great Car Nack and what Billfred said (hehe, say that five times fast). I do think teams have been able to develop better code for the camera, but I think it's going to be very similar to capping the center goal, like Greg suggested. Plus, in my opinion, there's only a SMALL emphasis on scoring in autonomous, so I can't imagine that many teams are going to "go for the gold" so to speak.

Re: Car Nack Predicts 01/08/07
I partly agree with car nack. I think there will be keepers scored in auto but not using the camera.

Re: Car Nack Predicts 01/08/07
To add my own prediction, most of the keepers ever scored will be along the bottom row of the rack.

Re: Car Nack Predicts 01/08/07
Why? It's much harder to score them there than at the top.

Re: Car Nack Predicts 01/08/07
I partly agree with this, and Carnack will be right for one regional (it might only be one, but it'll still be true). Although teams have gotten the camera working last year, I don't think using the camera to find the goal will be the hard part; I think making sure you're at the right angle to put a keeper on one of the legs will be.

I also don't think there will be alot of scoring with the rack swinging all match long unless there are particualrly skilled teams involved. |

Re: Car Nack Predicts 01/08/07
While I agree that scoring of keepers will be rare, I don't think it will be as rare as scoring a vision tetra was in 2005. To me, the autonomous problem this year seems an order of magnitude simpler: you start out with the scoring item which means you only have to find and drive to the goal. That doesn't mean it's going to be easy, just a lot simpler than that year.
