Edit: oh thank goodness

They're replaying it, for those wondering about the edit.

The Woodie Flowers Award went to Eric Stokely from FRC Team 360.

if y'all play a match, you'll also be the first PNW team on the Einstein carpet

and it's official! 2990 is the first PNW team to have a robot touch Einstein! great job with that feeding strategy

So far I am liking the interviews on Einstein better this year so far

What's with the lack of defense? These matches are so boring to watch.

I mean, if you don't know too much about the other Alliance, triple offense isn't a bad plan. Now that they've seen the other 7 Alliances, they can start formulating a better plan for defense.
Additionally, many of these teams have largely undefendable shots or shoot from protected locations, so conventional courtyard defense would be fairly ineffective. An argument could be made for neutral zone delay tactics, but I'm not sure how effective it would be.

I wonder what their strategy was to improve them.

On a more serious note, I have been loving the Einstein presentation so far. Having all of the teams walk onto the floor with their standards was brilliant and despite the field issues, they have done a good job filling time thus far.

Also Curie was a perfect reverse bracket. 5-8 won quarters, 7 and 8 won semis, and 8 won. Has that ever happened before?



987 was the #8 seed in 2007 when they won the World Championships, if I remember they called the Maroon alliance since that whole alliance had the same color

We were so excited! We'll see how we do!

2990 was playing a sort of defense the whole game - by feeding their alliance balls, they simultaneously starved their opposition of game pieces. conventional courtyard defense would have done nothing for them when all three opposing robots could just shoot over them

Even with 2990 dead, Hopper still wins. Crazy!

5th QF was amazing. What happened to 2990 though? Seemed like they lost comms.

Also congrats 2990, its great to see a PNW team on Einstein!

It sounded like the RoboRIO got reset. Apparently, the claim was that one of the low bar flaps hit our RoboRIO's reset button??? Not sure. I'm in Oregon hearing the noise :-)
