Re: VEX Drive Trains 2007

Anyone plan on de-scoring? Or is anyone already capable of doing so?

Posts or side goals? It is illegal to descore the rings on the posts... unfortunately

Re: VEX Drive Trains 2007

You can also de-score the platforms. However I don't think de-scoring will be a big thing at the regional events. I haven't seen any strategies really using the low goals or the platform for scoring. If the robots can't score on the posts they go to get the goals.

We can schlerp rings off the movable goal platforms and drop them outside the field, (as well as push them out of the side goals), but it's unlikely that we would do so. In a tight match, we can score as quickly as de-score, and you get more rank points by playing offensive than defensive. In an unbalanced match, it might even be worthwhile to score some points for the other team (or at least let them have the movable goals).
