Wow, sub 2-second laps are just impressive.

Re: High Score at the CT Regional

After 81 laps in a match, how come we ended up 44th seed?

And that's no coincidence that we scored our team number!

Re: High Score at the CT Regional

We only did 72 laps because we couldn't find a metric crescent wrench to upgrade and fine-tune our flux capacitor.

Re: High Score at the CT Regional

We only did 81 because of our wait switch. We didn't hit 88 MPH until approximately 2 seconds later!

By the way, I think we won, no?

Re: High Score at the CT Regional

The fact that FIRST doesn't list a 558 point match at the CT regional during qualifying leads me to suspect that this occurred during an extended practice match.

Re: High Score at the CT Regional

I know the videos aren't up on TBA but the infomation for each match is and i couldn't find it. And i don't think that it is possible to get that many points in a regular match.

Re: High Score at the CT Regional

looks like it's from practice day. i think someone was just playing around with the scoring system and thought it would be fun to "run up" the score.

Re: High Score at the CT Regional

I'd like to thank team 1493 The Falcons and team 1155 the SciBorgs who helped with this incredible score of 558, our team number. FIRST called the match when it got out oh hand, excess speed. Also, can the advisers of those teams please send the check to the score keeper. He has been sending me emails all day long that say "SMOoo-KER, SMOoo-KER, SMOoo-KER, SMOoo-KER". What is with that.

Good luck to the UberBots, team 1124, from your friends team 558.

Re: High Score at the CT Regional

Nope the score just kept going up. Our team was in the match, I think it was match 46 on Friday. I caught the same shot just 4 points lower. It's a keeper even if it doesn't count.

Re: High Score at the CT Regional

Haha, oh yeah, only the greatest of alliances can get a score like this! The refs thought it was too amazing of a score and gave us penalties for excessive awesomeness. Otherwise we could have scored 1,493 points!

How one would score an odd number of points would only have been explainable that way.
