 Many students I have met will insist that nothing is better than FIRST robotics. And most people would agree that a ham sandwich is better than nothing. So does it logically follow that a ham sandwich is better than FIRST robotics? - tsaksa [more] |

2006 Boilermaker red advantage?
I was just talking to one of the people who volunteered at the Boilermaker regional. She and some of the other volunteers had noticed that the red alliance seemed to win about 3/4 of the time, and had a theory about why. It looked like one of the field volunteers was picking up "misfired" balls that went over the red alliance wall...and then depositing them in one of the bins for the human players to throw from. I watched similar balls on the blue side get thrown to a referee at the corner of the field who would then just toss them onto the carpet. So the red teams would consistently have more balls at hand to enter into play, for either filling their 'bots or throwing across the field to try to score.
Did anyone else think they saw this happening? |
