Re: Silicon Valley Regional 2008
I like how some use GP to hit others over the head when they disagree with something. I could agree with techie if the error was a subjective call such as the ones you bring up in prior matches. You really have no point of argument because that's the way they see it and call it! Its like arguing balls and strikes with an umpire, its a waste of time and part of the game. Do you not see the difference in a subjective call and not adding points correctly however. Sorry if that seems un-GP to you to pose the question. Yes, I agree that 100 and 254 had better bots and that it took a strategy to overcome them. If we lose big time to them in two I walk away with my head up knowing we got that far and went up against the best and did our best. It didn't happen that way though and it was 2-2 in the best of three. When you go up against bots like 100 and 254 I know we would lose more if it went to best of seven, nine , eleven but in a best of three, we we had a shot.
I think the way FIRST handled the whole thing in the end vindicates my position on the error regardless of how you feel about it. I wish it had been decided sooner so these teams could plan ahead more. Best wishes to all, aloha
