Re: Who has successfully THROWN ringers on to the rack yet?

I am a human player for team 1727 and I successfully threw a ringer onto the bottom row at the beginning of the match and had a few near misses. It is not impossibly, but yet improbable for a human player to score this way. The human players job is not to score, but yet to assist their or their alliances robots score.

In the finals, our human player threw a tube that neatly landed square on a top spider. This was about ten seconds into the round.

Throwing ringers wasn't a good idea for us. We have BAD aim when it comes to that

At Buckeye, there have been at least 2 successful throws... pretty nifty.

Re: Who has successfully THROWN ringers on to the rack yet?

Throughout VCU and and the first day of Peachtree, I think our human player scored four ringers. Then we had our arm working well and realized that we were faster picking up tubes when our human player fed it to our robot over the wall. So then, we had to stop throwing them over.

But our human player ended up getting really good at throwing them. He's gotten a lot on during our practice field sessions. In fact, on the practice field one time, he scored a ringer, and then on the next one, he put another ringer over it, effectively de-scoring it. But at least it was only a practice match.
