Correct if im wrong, but i dont believe they had a scoring mechanism (right?....)
Or are you just pointing out the importance in an ubertube or minibot
IF we had more time to code, we might have been able to get an ubertube on a low peg. We did allow for it in the design. But in reality we probably would have used our autonomous period to get up a head of steam so that we could start at the opponents end of the field as quickly as possible. Thanks to MOE for that suggestion.

As for the minibot - uhg. Our initial design for regionals never worked. We worked with the "FRO" on a new design for world championships that worked but then we got hit with someones arm and it broke. It took us most of Friday to fix it. But our last three matches it worked.

Akash is dead on when he said we did not instill confidence till those three rounds when we were humming along.
