Our shooter was also pretty good, and were getting some points in teleop, we had problems with our shooter not being consistent, but that was changed...Our team could push down the bridges with some difficulty, but we could get over the bridge and we pulled a 2-way balance...
We could have done many things, but for our last regional, we were not picked...Even being seeded at 11th out of 55.... I am guessing it was because of our lack of scouting...Because we should have been in the elims :/ So scouting is going to be a big thing for us next year...

Probably more of a case that you just didn't fit into what alliances wanted for their first or second pick. As stated earlier, 111's alliance in 2009 had 971, the 66th seed. Look how well they did. It's possible you filled a very niche role that just didn't fit into the 8 alliances. Don't be discouraged. Maybe you should ask some of the alliance captains how you could have been a more appealing pick; maybe you can use this information for next season to build a more desirable bot.
