Re: Your Scouting System

Our team has been around for long enough to know that sometimes scouting just has to rely on the scout's ability to understand the game. Our team was just at the Pittsburgh Regional and it seemed that a major key was the double ramp. The two alliances that made it to finals both had at least one bot with double ramping capability. Hey, 60 points it quite a lot...or at least it was at this past regional.

Re: Your Scouting System

Our team didn't do any scouting

I was wondering what were some of your strongest arguments for why to scout and how it helps as many people on my team find it to be useless, and I would like to prove them otherwise.

thats how we roll, except im one of very, very few students that do it on the team. but all i do is understand the game and how people play it. then i watch the majority of the qualifying matches and make notes on a spreadsheet (courtesy of Duane Card and Lee Shehan). then i (and a couple other people) present these notes at a team meeting on friday night. nothing crazy, just keep it simple [stupid]

Re: Your Scouting System

Our scouting system this year is AMAZING. We begin on Thursday, where our team goes around the pits and asks other teams basic information about their robots and takes pictures. Also beginning on Thursday, we have 6 people up in the stands who watch the teams during their practice matches. Each person takes a team and records their moves on her computer. The moves are relayed to a master computer, which calculates the next best move for the team to make.

We do the same type of scouting on Friday and Saturday, and we've found that our scouting system is more accurate at ranking teams rather than the FIRST rankings. All in all, it's a pretty sweet program.
