At Pittsburgh:
1038 scored almost every time
375 also had a fairly consistant auto mode through qualifications, but couldn't seem to get it to work in the semi-finals.

That's all i can remember for now.

Unfortunately, atlot of 'not so good' things happened in our last match at GLR.

Not sure why 1114's machine did not score their keeper that match. Probably because it had to drive across the field to get to that light.

The reason we did not score that last match was completely our own fault. The first thing during autonomous is the arm is raised and the end effector flips out. We forgot to hook up the strap that pulls out the end effector. So needless to say it didn't flip out and the keeper was blocking the camera.

Other then that we scored every keeper we tried on Saturday.

at glr----- was it the position of rack that keep 1114 and 67 from doubling up that last match. was light in just the right spot to mess them up.

Not sure why 1114's machine did not score their keeper that match. Probably because it had to drive across the field to get to that light.

1114 couldn't score that keeper because, by the time they got to the bottom-level spider they were aiming for, 67 had already scored a keeper on the middle-level spider just above and 67's arm was in the way of 1114 being able to score. 1114 seemed to have trouble getting track on the lamp because it was across the field and at a troublesome angle to their starting position. For that reason, it took longer than usual for them to reach the spider and they arrived after 67.

Another interesting thing about that match: an opposing alliance bot - not sure which team - drove around to meet 67 in an autonomous defensive manuever - something we'd seen a number of teams do and something I was worried about. That move was not successful and 67 scored anyway.

In the previous match, 1114 tracked directly to a bottom-level spider and scored quickly. Then 67 reached the middle-level spider just above and scored. Two keepers - one just above the other - that was a thrilling sight to see!

In the LA Regional the only team, to my knowledge, that scored in autonomous was 330 the Beach Bots. We got extremely close a few times. Of course those attempts were once we shut off the camera, pointed the robot at the rack and hoped the judges turned the rack to our advantage. We had to turn off our camera because we couldn't get the camera values to lock onto the green light and not the bright lights over the arena. We went around the first day asking teams if they had or used cameras. We found that about six teams had cameras at all, one team besides ourselves had one ready to use, two teams said that they'll be working by the end of the day and the rest said they were just for decoration. I think that 330, the only team that scored in autonomous didn't have a camera (correct me if I'm wrong). We're hoping the situation in San Diego will be better.

We managed to finish the set point on Thursday. the autonomous was working just fine on the practice field Thursday night. but Friday morning in the filed the camper couldn't find the green light becks of really bright sealing lights. after working with the camera on Friday, we scored 10 times on Saturday (almost every single time.) , i think we missed it two times because the keeper wasn't preloaded correctly.
as you saw we were only scoring on the bottom row in front of us, but in Vegas we are going for the middle row, and maybe on sides of the rack so if there is another robot with autonomous in our side, we won't interfere.

At Silicon Valley Regional, there was only 1 keeper scored the whole regional. This was by team 846 the funky monkeys

Alot were scored at UTC. 230, 1124, 716, 25, 40, and a few others got them onto the rack a few times.

1718 was very consistant with their keepers. I believe i saw 1 time that they did not score in auto
