Go to Post While at kickoff I asked Woodie if there were any concerns about missed shots at the center goal hitting the operators or the controls. He handed me a ball and told me to throw it at him as hard as I could... How many times does an opportunity like that come up? - Barry Bonzack [more]

Re: A disturbing trend?

I'm wondering if the reason for this trend is unprepared teams, or not enough inspectors? I'm leaning toward unprepared teams.

At St. Louis we had about the same number of inspectors (8) that we have had for the last three years, and about the same number of teams (45). As in previous years we assigned one inspector to each row of the pits, so each inspector was responsible for six or seven robots.

As of pit closing time on Thursday there were 37 teams that had completed inspection, five that had minor items pending, and three that had major items pending. No team missed a qualifying match, but two came very close.

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.
