Had a great time competing with you on Galileo, and am very pleased to see you represent us well.

Tremendous job!

I could have sworn 16 had won worlds before this...
Oh well, now they have! Congrats to the winning alliance! You truly did amazing this year.

Re: CONGRATULATIONS 16, 25, and 180!
 

Congrats!:D :D

Re: CONGRATULATIONS 16, 25, and 180!
 

Indeed, none of the robots on Einstein disappointed me!

Seeing the all-Canadian alliance was fantastic as well!

Re: CONGRATULATIONS 16, 25, and 180!
 

Congrats! I thought we had a pretty low combined team number when we won champs (294+67+177=538), but putting together 180+16+25=221 is truly impressive! :ahh:

Re: CONGRATULATIONS 16, 25, and 180!
 

Congratulations!!!

You guys have perservered to victory and you truely deserve recognition.

Re: CONGRATULATIONS 16, 25, and 180!
 

I followed 25 on Facebook all weekend. I was cheering the whole time! Especially after 1885 from VA got knocked out. I felt invested... probably from all the times 25 destroyed us on the field in the past (I actually stood in the box, utterly impressed a few times over 2010 and 2011 while they were on the field). Good to see they picked one up while I was in FRC as a student.

Bomb Squad, Spam, and Raider Robotix. I have the utmost respect for you. In the midst of all of this insanity regarding the field issues you have stayed professional. Though I agree that it is unacceptable that FIRST has these issues, I would LOVE to express my contratulations to you for your outstanding performance in the 2012 FRC season. You are remarkable teams and I look forward to seeing you and competeing with you in the future.

CONGRATS!!

Re: CONGRATULATIONS 16, 25, and 180!
 

I debated a bit over the legality of your win, but.....

Congratulations! You guys are the 2012 champions no matter how mug you look at it. I swore that 16 and 180 had already won world champs. I guess I'm right now. :rolleyes:

Go Spamming Raider Squad!

Re: CONGRATULATIONS 16, 25, and 180!
 

Congratulations 180, 25 and 16!

You guys were an amazing alliance for being the fourth seed. You could triple, perfect auto and outscore most teams in tele-op. How you managed to get 16 as your third pick I will never know, their defence was fantastic!

Well done on becoming World Champions :D

Re: CONGRATULATIONS 16, 25, and 180!
 

Congrats 16,25 and 180 on becoming world champs. I think that this alliance winning shows why rebound rumble is such a good game. It is not just about putting the best shooters together on a team and hoping it works, it is about building the best alliance. And this was the best alliance at champs. I especially like 16's defense and the ability to triple made them even better.

I'm already looking forward to next year.

Re: CONGRATULATIONS 16, 25, and 180!
 

I believe that We did such a great job due to how we scouted. we looked for a good consistant shooter and a ball collector. plus they just happened to be perfect for a triple balance :)

I will be making a photo for the alliance and will post it shortly. GO BOMB CAN ROBOTICS!!!!

I was watching from at home and was only able to catch the last four matches on Einstein. When I first saw that this alliance was together it brought a smile to my face. 16 was amazing all year and I have always looked to them as a strong veteran team. My team has been tied to 25 since our teams allied at Palmetto in 2005 and it is always a pleasure for 1251 to bump into them at any event. Over the years I have to come to know the 25 core mentor group pretty well all great people. Now on to SPAM, what can I say about 180, being a fellow Floridan, I know these guys bring it every year. This years robot was no exception as it was flawless from day one and then continued to be improved. Finally, I am continually inspired by their mentors and designs. Congratulations to the entire alliance, no three teams could be more deserving.

Re: CONGRATULATIONS 16, 25, and 180!
 

Well done. All of the robots in Einstein were inspirational, especially to such an "adolescent" team such as ours. We have just enough experience to see how much more experience we need to gain. Watching a wining alliance (whose numbers add up to a total sum of 221!) with cumulative decades of experience was highly educational.

Emma, we all love you for this XDD
