Thanks! If you guys had a 558 point match, do you think we can score 1124? What if we play together?

Re: High Score at the CT Regional

So what really happened? (Or was somebody playing with the scoring system?)

I'd believe an odd score, but only if it was at SVR. (We had 9-10=0 points for our alliance displayed on the big screen after qualification match number 3 until I got to stand in the contesting box and point out our score was odd. At least that made it easy to get fixed.)

And that's quite the picture. Even blue's score would be quite impressive for an extended practice match based on what I was seeing Thursday if it was the result of someone playing with the scoring system afterwards. Whatever the circumstances, must have been fun... but next time aim for our team number instead! Could it even display 4 digits?

Re: High Score at the CT Regional

What really happened was someone was trying to reset the scoring system or something, incorrectly obviously. This was an extended thursday practice match and the real score was something like 38-32.

That would be amazing to see. I challenge everyone to try to score 558 points... even if it's not physically possible.

Re: High Score at the CT Regional

I take that challenge. "558 points" are now defined as points earned by doing anything related to Yale, New Haven, or the Elm City RoboSquad.

Prime examples of ways to earn "558 points":
Catching a Metro-North train headed to New Haven
Applying to Yale University
Smoking with anyone named Ernest (congrats!)
Naming your first born child Elihu
Eating white clam pizza

I applied to Yale (haven't heard back yet, though)... do I get "558 points"?
I haven't done any of the others, though.

Re: High Score at the CT Regional

Smurfgirl,

If you decide to attend Yale, I certainly hope you would consider taking the short jaunt down the street to help mentor the Robo Squad. We'd give you as many "558 points" as you want!!!

If I get "558 points", then I'm in!

If we're being serious, though, I'm definitely looking to help mentor any robotics teams in whatever area I end up at college. I started a community program on my team two years ago, and that program holds all my favorite memories from being on the robotics team. The looks on the kids faces when they see our robot, and when they hear the stories we tell, makes it more than worth our time. Seeing their excitement and their eyes light up as we inspire them is one of the best feelings ever. Being a good role model is a lot of fun!
