 During the year I can't wait for the game hint to be released, but then as soon as it is released and I read it for the first time my head starts to hurt and I regret reading it at all... - Jon Jack [more] |

SPAMs poor man's scouting system is for teams that have more people than money. It requires just one laptop to store the data collected by scouters using (gasp) paper and pen.
This year's Database has quite a few changes. Hopefully, you will consider them improvements.
If you have any questions, send me a note.

Thanks for posting this every year Warren and Team 180!
We find the print out sheets work well for scouting.

I am curious as to the purpose of the questions about bumper quality

Bumper quality is an "attention to detail" measure. Teams that get little things right tend to do better on the big things.

James,
There is a school of thought that says that bumper quality closely correlates to machine quality and our lead strategist ascribes to that philosophy.
There are exceptions to this rule, but it works for a first pass.

On the optional thursday sheet what does "6. Potential Disc Trap?" mean?

A stuck disc reduces a robots offensive ability by not allowing it to carry as many scoring discs at once.
While we would never propose intentionally getting a disc stuck on a robot, we do take this into account by having that robot stay away from flying discs, if possible, when they are on our alliance.
