(Though in '08 we made it to the finals together, and came so, so very close to winning FLR, so the jinx seems to be quals only.)

We'll be back with an upgraded (read: functional) tube-handling mechanism, a much faster minibot (if 340 lets us steal a Steve design), and if we can get it built in time, a super-duper cool robot demo device. (Insert maniacal laughter here.)
Yeah... Even just looking at this year, a match where 1551 and 1126 can only put up 10 point, there's some sort of witchcraft going on.

And you guys have an already impressive robot, so best of luck on your robot improvements! We look forward to competing with (and against ) teams as great as yours!
