Best auto mode: 233 (when it worked, sometimes they had some hang-ups with running into other robots and such)
Honorable mention: 254, they went 40 for 40 of capping the vision tetra on the center goal with their practice bot, but for some reason it didnt work with their actual bot
Most reliable autonomous mode: 118, knocked the corner down and capped the middle every time I saw them try it
Most intimidating bot: 71
Most fun to watch play: 997, to watch them stack so many tetras at a time was awe inspiring
Great Mentors: Andy Baker (45), Karthik Kanagasabapathy (114, 1503, 1680), and Paul Copioli (217)

This is what I get for telling people (even on our own team) what we have been doing. Things get blown out of proportion, and people start making up their own "facts" and all of a sudden we're capping "10 out of 10" or "40 out of 40" or "capping both vision tetras on the center goal in 10 seconds." Truth be told, we only spent ~20 working hours on anything related to the vision tetras. We were about an hour's work on the practice field away from integrating our vision tetra programming when we realized that our old auton (knock down hanging tetra and cap near-side middle goal, then run towards autoloader) wasn't working, so we had to scrap that hour of work on the practice field on Thursday in favor of trying to fix that other autonomous mode. Thanks to the rampant rumors about our exploration and fantasy success with the vision tetras at Nationals this year, I've got a feeling that if we're going to do something super cool like that in 2006 that we won't be sharing it until it's done in competition for the first time.

Heh, sorry. Thats just what I heard. But hey, the fact that you even got around to getting a vision system even coming close to working puts you among a select few! I mean we really never even came close, and I know many a team didnt even attempt it.
