Lol, I know the field was a mess too. They were taping up the carpet between matches.

Heh, i spy some nuts and bolts I gave ya! :p

Yep, Natalie gave me a quick tutorial of "scrounging after a competition", I believe you guys call it, hahah.

P.S. I think you're missing the huge multipe pieces of polycarbonate you guys found .. and you're absolutely right, you can find ANYTHING left over after a competition!

Speaking of debris, I helped packed up the field after the regional, and one of the things I picked up was Mark's que cards with awards and team numbers on them, if anyone want these as momentos, drop me a line and I'll see if I have yours.

Sounds like it got pretty rough up there. Any flags given?

no yellow flags were given out during SVR. many penalty flags were thrown, but none for rough play (ramming) that i know of. We did get a penalty for pinning 254 to the rackand several warnings were given out to other teams for rough play (but not 766!). I belive that was the first penalty 766 has been given during the time i have been the driver (06-07).

Our programmer isn't complaining. :p
Other stuff that doesn't make sense: drill bits, erasers, and safety glasses.

The refs were somewhat lax about calling aggressiveness as opposed to LA Regional. I got a warning for ramming and I didn't even know I was doing it! You guys were excellent opponents. Our drive system was too weak to escape your alliance pinning us to the edge of the field. It was a good game.
