Re: Scores
Agreed on that, although I feel that scores will get scary close as the year progresses and as people get all 12 actions and a timer. This would then make size a bigger factor due to its tie breaking role.PM2017 wrote:I feel like both the chemical clock and the size will be the determining factor at nats.Iwilsonp wrote:That's crazy small.ScottMaurer19 wrote: Haha nice.

By timer, I meant precision (or rather, closer to 3 min), and not so much whether it's working or not.Kyanite wrote:Agreed on that, although I feel that scores will get scary close as the year progresses and as people get all 12 actions and a timer.

Re: Scores
Our device scored 1280 at UPenn, and Cornell's device was at 1332 or something like that. Had all of our actions worked we would have been at 1395+.
