Overview

This is the perfect tool for teams in the FIRST Robotics Competition 2007 (Rack N' Roll).  It allows you to place ringers on the board where possible and accurately counts the score for each team.  There is a nice undo and redo option for when you mess up.  Plus, the best feature is suggesting the best offensive and defensive moves for each team after each move.  Other features include saving progress in a round to continue later and dumping every move in a round to a text file for review.  There is a help dialog in the program if you haven't read the FIRST manual (which you should have by now).

This project was created for Team 1885.
