I'd like to point out that that was without any triple balancing, just double balancing. I'll admit I prefer winning, but losing after putting up a 6-ball Rube Goldberg auton and 90 total points.... well you have to respect an opponent that can win against that.

So, since we're doing the thanks here:
Thanks to 2415 and 3997 for the rather awesome and definitely fun alliance. We had a good run and a stellar last match, it's hard to ask for a better finish than that. Congrats to 2415 on the Engineering Inspiration, and 3997 for the Rookie All-Star. Best of luck to both of you at Champs, I'll be rooting for you.

Congrats to 118, 359, and 1642 on the regional win. It's hard to argue with that level of firepower, but we tried our best.

To Glenn from 359: You, sir, are the picture perfect definition of a gracious winner, and darned fun to talk to. You're welcome back any time. Just give us a heads up so we can lasso up the tornadoes in advance of your flight in. Also, my wife send her thanks for your kind gift of delicious chocolate covered macadamia nuts.

More congrats to 2936 on the Regional Chairman's, well deserved for a consistent and consistently large and enthusiastic team.

Huge thanks to 2587 for the loan/donation of a planetary stage from your 256:1 banebots gearbox to fix our exploded wedge gearbox. I'm hoping we left you enough parts to repair yours that broke slightly later. In the future, I'll make sure my agents are a little more clear if we'll be cannibalizing your part to repair our bot. I can guarantee you we'll never be borrowing parts for a 256:1 banebots gearbox again, if that's any consolation.

And now I think I'm going to collapse and try to recover from the non-stop fun and excitement of the last four days/months. Someone wake me up when it's kickoff.
