Highest Litter Scores

[page2067]

We'll eventually get some video out of this trick

We embraced the dark side of the game - throwing litter on the neighbors!

But for this not really throwing it in but inserting it in barrel from over the wall
Sonny did it (insert noodle in barrel after it was stacked on 5 totes) several (4?) times during quals. and a few in elims - fun.

Plus a good thrower!

I recall at Virginia we had one match that we had a litter score of at least 32 and there was one match that was higher....46 comes to mind. We are tied with team 3072 for a 141 litter average. I guess the only way to verify this is to go back and check the matches we played in if there is video of it. There was one match where our human player landed a noodle
that ended up balanced on top of an opposing alliance robot and another where a noodle went into one of the opposing alliances cans.

141 was your total number of points, not the average. ^^ Can be pretty confusing though, so I can see it being easy to mix up.

Likewise, 3959's litter total for Bayou was 305! I believe all or most of those were from thrown litter as well.

2....... 33.0... 1723.. Colorado
3....... 31.5... 5415.. Mexico City
4....... 30.1... 1114.. Waterloo
5....... 29.6.... 192.. Utah
6....... 28.5... 2036.. Colorado
7....... 27.2... 4009.. Central Illinois
8....... 26.8... 3158.. Mexico City
9....... 26.8... 3506.. North Carolina
10..... 26.4... 1410.. Colorado

It is interesting to note that 6 of the top 10 scores came at high elevation events, Denver, Utah, and Mexico City. Guess noodles fly farther through thin air.

This data is interesting, but its utility and your conclusion are questionable unless 'canned litter' and 'thrown litter' points can be separated. Maybe it has been already?

Interestingly enough, my team had the highest litter points at the Finger Lakes Regional, with a total of 195. That only averages out to 17.2 per match in qualifications, yet FLR was a very competitive regional this year. I'm wondering why that is when other regionals with lower overall QA's had much better top litter scores. Maybe those top teams (in terms of litter score) are outliers?

Mind doing this for the lowest scores?
