Team 67 was a good robot, they had a solid design, there atonomous mode was very good. But I only seen one team that had a little suprise for team 67 Atonomous mode. :D

Hmm... one robot that has not gotten ANYWHERE near enough praise is 175. they improved phenominally throughout the competitions, and I really think that they had one of the toughest climbs (other than 1396) to the top of any team there. why? well, in the BAE regional, defense and hanging were the big factors determining successful teams. BUZZ, as many of you know, has a small ball collecting robot, and a 2x manipulator. however, one area it was weak in was torque. though the power outputs were probably changed, any amount of defense quickly negated the threat of BUZZ in a match at the BAE regional. at that point they did not hang(?) they ranked decently at 21st, but not as high as they did at UTC (6th) 138 selected them and 40 and proceeded to get to the final match set (which was very close. Buzz was the deciding factor in the only victory against 501's alliance)

then at nats, like 138, BUZZ was met with quite a bit of hard luck when it came to matches, their record was 3-3-1 (138's who selected them in NH was 2-4-1)

When they were selected in an alliance, I was happy because I believed people REALLY needed to se the power of that machine, and they did... to a point. as I've said enough times, it is the alliance that wins matches. though 1038 and 1388 had to have served their functions well to get where they were, it was BUZZ on the floor EVERY SINGLE TIME. BUZZ carried their own, and scored so many points it made my head spin.

all in all (sorry for the long post) BUZZ made a wonderful bot and married that perfectly with a good operation crew and human player.

just thought they needed a little public praise

Buzz was absolutely awesome, which is why they were in every single one of their alliance's matches from the Curie quarterfinals to the Einstein semifinals. We certainly would not have made it as far as we did without them.

I thought 33, 67, 45, and 71 were awsome robots. great designs and everything.
