Re: pic: Texas Robot Roundup: Winners
The Skills Challenge seems like a really cool idea, though I imagine with "only" 27 balls power dumpers around the world could get close to the 54 possible points. What if the challenge was done at, say, IRI... 3 goals, 60 balls, 1 minute? That would be a test of one's skills in managing a large ball capacity, reloading missed balls, and ball throughput...
Needless to say 148 would likely do just as well at such an event, with a very large capacity and good ball throughput.
