That's crazy small.
Do people think size will be the differentiating factor between the top teams at Nationals?
I feel like both the chemical clock and the size will be the determining factor at nats.
My dimension goals are sub 20x15x15

please wish me luck in the upcoming months

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.

By timer, I meant precision (or rather, closer to 3 min), and not so much whether it's working or not.

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+.

What do you estimate would be a competitive top ten score in NY? I have no clue what to aim for.

Anything above 1000-1100 probably...
