We were expecting there to be lots of robots with it, so we had a whole system in place to stop others from interfering with it. Looks like it's going to just be you and us in the entirety of St. Louis. You should stop by our pit and I will definitely be bringing our programmers to yours so we can swap notes about Kinect on the robot.
