Nicely done guys. It's sure fun for me to see it all come full circle. How'd you like the game and are there any videos of Frontiers available?

Thank you. My team and I really enjoyed the game. There were a great deal of scoring opportunities between the birdies, the savage ball, and the ramp at the end. Autonomous was very rewarding too. There were a wide range of designs that really worked well between the birdie broom and the tread rollers. Defense was fun and useful in this game also. There was one team on the finalist alliance that would gather all of the white birdies from the entire field and then score at the end of the match, so what my team did was let them gather up all 16 white birdies defense free. Then we parked in front of the goal and then they couldn't score because we raised our arm and it was in there way.
