The 2007 High Score Thread

[charlie1218]

I am an operator for 1218. come on guys lets see 512 pts. BTW the other teams worked just fine, they just had broken arms.

I've got to come clean: 1495 scored no points that round!!!! We made some disgusting blocks though. We stopped at least 2, which definitely paved the way for the full ring.

If we had that alliance again, AND we get our ramp working at the end, we'd be killer.

512??

768 is definitely the must-have before the Championship is over with.

I'm pretty sure that's impossible, unless it's a BYOT match. Bring your own tues, that is. You get 3 keepers and 18 ringers of each color in a match, so that's 21 of each color...with 24 spots to score on the rack. So, unfortunately, we won't be seeing anything over 596.

(Also...two rings of 8 around would be 536, so long as they're also making little rows of two vertically. )

remember the 64 points you would get for having rows of three up. and then add a 60 for ramps...

And the 7 rows of 8 equals 56 and add all that up and you get 628 points as a max score and if any team does that they would be my hero. and from what i saw it might be team 501. If they had more time.

Don't forget the rows going upwards:
256 (full row going horizontal around the rack) x 3 rows = 768
8 (full row going vertically on the rack) x 8 columns = 64

So the max score would be 832, would it not be? (Correct me if I am wrong )

You'd have trouble finding that many ringers on the playing field...

You'd only need 24 ringers to get the full rack. I think the bigger challenge would be putting all those ringers on before the other team gets a ringer on there. I'm sure a spoiler or two would be used if there was a case of an alliance owning the full rack.

EDIT: Ah, now I know what you mean, there are only 19 ringers for each alliance during a match; 22 if keepers are counted. So you could ALMOST own the whole rack.

[Tetraman]

Three Keepers and 18 ringers are all that you can possibly score

R R R R R
R R R R R R R R
R R K K K R R R

Thats the rack after you score those tubes

544 points horizontal
52 points vertical
=
596 points on the rack total

Plus 60 points for two robots

=

652 points MAX

Today in the quarterfinal matches at Peachtree, our alliance (1746, 1057, and us) won 128-2, then 256-15.....which was then topped in another match when an alliance won 262-0.

Congrats to the winners (I forget the numbers, and final results aren't yet up on FIRST's site), and good luck in Atlanta.

I forget if it was quarters or semis, but 1127, 1369, and ourselves won a match 260-0. Not sure if that's what you were referring to, or maybe I missed a match that was 262-0?

Yeah, that's it, I was mistaken. Those were the only two times at Peachtree that a full 8-ringer row was hung

[teenmisfit]

501 was in the only 2 matches with full rings of 8 at BAE
