[Mike Schroeder]

While allowing the refs to inspect, team members from RAGE came literally yelling that it was our intent to destroy the tape measure and purposely get entangled. The refs were sick of hearing the arguments and went to discuss it.

1st thing loved your robot rick

2nd thing at rutgers in one of our matches we ran into a problem like yours only we were on the opposite side.

don't remember #'s but toward the end of the match we lauched the "mini-me" and in retrospect we did it to early but one of our opponents drove by and decided to get our tether our of scoring position. it didnt work so they decide to do a happy dance on it

now after the match, just to make matters clear I nicely walked up to a judge to point out that that can be construded (sp?) as Malicious(sp?) intent, but in my defense when i looked at the drive team they were point in and laughing as they "Happy Danced" all over our "Mini-Me"

I some cases yes you shoot it you better be able to prtect it that is why in cases where they are flimsy peices of paper or whatever it is they should be disqualified for entanglement

We still won the match though

that is just my handful of change
