Just my opinion.

1114 --build process well-covered elsewhere on CD. It's not mentors-only.
2056 --1114-mentored, would they really go mentors-only?
111
148 --See the note on 1114, and JVN's blog.

254 -- They only
look mentor-built.
303
525 --NOPE.
768
987 --NOPE.
1503 --Student built.
1676 --Don Rotolo and crew will happily show you what a student-built robot can do.
2471
2815 --Billfred'll be more than happy to tell you that you're wrong there.
33--Student built.
118
217--Copioli is getting tired of defending against this opinion, judging by some of the posts he's made on the issue. It's false there, too.
359--I don't think I've seen more than a few mentors in their pits. EVER.
1918
2137
2337--MENTORED students built that.
2415--they've posted as student-built, too.
If you want to call out a bunch of teams for being mentor-built, bring some evidence. As it is, the teams that I specifically made a note on have posted on CD that they are not mentor-built, or I've seen them in action, or the vein of their CD posts as a group indicates student building. Some of the others have a strong CD presence, but have not been as clear--I invite them to assist in pointing out their process.
Oh, and 330 won 2 events last year, and I'll tell you right now: Students had at least one hand
apiece in that robot, from Kickoff to IRI.
