This is what gave me some hints as to who the group may be. It wouldn't surprise me if it is that group.

Edit: Def. a group "Location: FIRSTers All-Over"

If you look around CD, you'll notice something missing from year's past. That should lead you in the right direction.

You know, it's funny, LF mentions team 716, the WhoCtech's about not being in the limelight in a while. At Suffield Shakedown, they proved they are still in the game. Well today's match results at Granite State are showing that as well. Watch them tomorrow! I hope my predictions turn into reality.

So its not just me? I was wondering about that. Blog's gone too.

I've also heard a lot of good things about 716, though I'll have to agree with our anonymous host. Since their stellar 2004 run (two regional titles back then was a LOT bigger deal than two regional titles now, plus Archimedes finalists once they ran into the eventual world champions), they've only hung one more banner (Connecticut 2008, as last pick of the draft after a 1-7, 60th-of-62 qualifying run).

Still, I for one am glad to see them back in form. :)

If I were a betting person, I would bet that it isn't who has left that is important... it is who has returned.

My bet would be that Dr. Joe Johnson has something to do with the return of Looking Forward.

Alas, I am not a betting person.

  • Autonomous scoring usually doesn't play a huge role in the first couple weeks of competition, but that could change this year. Teams that already have their auto kinks worked out will have a huge advantage. Expect many qualification matches to be won by autonomous scoring and balancing points.
  • Another interesting decision regarding intake and shooter alignment belongs to 862. Will their side-facing shooter simplify basket targeting or just provide inconvenience? It could certainly aid in scoring along the fender. Regardless, they'll have an uphill battle to climb against teams like the Bees, Martians, and Wings of Fire. A spot in the quarters is well within their grasp, but they'll need favorable match-ups to advance further.
These two predictions were incredible accurate at Kettering. I am on team 862 and the side shooter worked beautifully. Also with the first prediction about the auto scoring being important, this was very true. Im pretty sure that if it wasnt for team 3322 , 3601, and 862 's autos all working together we would have never made it to the finals. We were able to get at least 4 shots in every time and on the last match we got all 6 in which was worth 33 points (the last shot didnt register till after auto) which gave us a huge lead when starting off tele.

I will love our three team's coordinated autonomous modes for a very long time. It was the perfect display of cooperation between members of an alliance. Just being able to watch the "Rube-Goldberg" autonomous run was an amazing sight to see. Thank you so much to team 862 and 3601; our robots honestly worked perfectly together.
