Not intentional by any means, but those are the rules. The other we lost straight up, because our opponent (245, I think it was) got a minibot up and we didn't. We scored a bucketload of tubes in each match, but penalties and minibots can both be a major deciding factor this year, and each one bit us once.

That just goes to show how hard it is to go undefeated at any regional, and what an accomplishment it was for the Bomb Squad to do so!
