Engineer on team #237, sie h2o bots, from Watertown high school ct and sieman co.



Hi. I sat down the other night and as I was going through all the games played to date it sudenly it came to me that there was an amazing set of coincidences between all the regionals.
First all the practice rounds were played in every regional on a Thursday....
Second every team played in their first game on Friday.
Third, and this was the most out standing coincident. every team had a party and it was on.... get this, a Friday night.....ooooooooooh.
Forth. No team reached the finals untill Saturday, can you imagine that, not one.
Fifth. all the winners of the finals won round disks on colored ribbons.
sixth. And this is the one that really awed me was that the next day ( SUNDAY ) every team had left.
Does that amaze you or what????

not to mention all 520 or so teams chose to use the SAME EXACT control system and batteries... and most of the teams came up with the SAME EXACT program -- line by line.
