<Meredith16> Yes. 4 wheel swerve for the second year, correct.
<Leeland1126> Of course!
<Guest 26> They are most deadly because of how well they can pick up balls!
Guest 35 is logged into the chat
<grimtuesday> I doubt they'll be number 1 seed, but I bet they'll be in the finals
<matt_FRCDesigns> Hey Meredith!

<Meredith16> We've added a mechanism so that we don't even have to lift the box to load the catapult.
<Leeland1126> And it's gorgeous. I wish our swerve was half that amazing.

<grimtuesday> That pretty much only applies to Rebound Rumble, though, it's not a generic FIRST strategy

<SuperNerd256> 148 was first at Alamo
<Guest 13> they had a tailgun kind of thing, not internal to frame perimeter

<Guest 56> GrimTues, ur right, IE works better for TS
<Bryan33> Hey Matt
<Guest 16> but chrome...
<Guest 59> Chrome wasnt working for me, but IE fixed the problem.
<Bryan33> We beat them
<grimtuesday> ^^
<SuperNerd256> Firefox works great.
<grimtuesday> 1918 looks quite good, solid key shooter
<Guest 16> chrome didnt work, i refreshed, and like magic, everthing worked

<tombot> There's a way you can stream the audio from VLC/WMP/etc, no?
<grimtuesday> 3rd and 4th picks at their other events
<Bryan33> Sorry, we beat 2337
<Baselthe2nd> 1918 was one of the best robots at MSC when they were on, but not great when they were off. Very hot and cold.

<grimtuesday> 48 is lock territory
<jtemple> 7 awards thus far for 48 yes?
<matt_FRCDesigns> Travis: can you shoot over a tall robot from the key?

<Bryan33> Who else in Galileo shoots the balls off the bridge in auto? 16?
<stevend223> 2007 defense is so awesome
Colinsanity is logged into the chat
<matt_FRCDesigns> @Bryan 16 can
<SuperNerd256> 973 + 1717 would have won it. Two of the best swerves I've seen.
<Leeland1126> Does anyone else think 1323's robot is a little over complicated? A turret on a lift, right?
<Bryan33> Anyone else?
<tombot> 1717 and a rock would have won
<matt_FRCDesigns> Not that I can think quick off of my head
<jwfoss> leeland, at least it doesnt have swerve?
Guest 49 has left the chat
<Leeland1126> Oh gosh... that's a good point.
<jwfoss> i kinda dig the lift
<matt_FRCDesigns> @Leeland you have a swerve and a turret
<Meredith16> 2054 looked good at MSC. They have a big hook stinger.
<jwfoss> i dont think the turret was needed
<matt_FRCDesigns> Hey Colin!
<jtemple> 2054 REALLY reminds me of oldschool Team 60 robots. Dat powder coat <3
<stevend223> IMO whether a turret is needed or not depends on the drivetrain/drivers
<Guest 13> yes
<Leeland1126> That's what I was thinking. I love the robot. But it just seems kinda complicated.
Guest 50 has left the chat
<Leeland1126> And I know Matt... In hindsight...
<Colinsanity> Hey what?
Guest 66 is logged into the chat
<Bryan33> so 2054, 16, and 33? There has to be more than that?
<jwfoss> i dont think turrets were needed this year. but thats just me
<SuperNerd256> ^
<Leeland1126> I think turrets help. But are far from necessary defending on the rest of the robot.
<Guest 56> 148
<Leeland1126> *depending

jjmiller has left the chat
<jwfoss> and 8wd without a turret and a camera does just fine
<SuperNerd256> Turrets were useful in 2009 because the targets were moving. Now, the baskets are stationary and moving the robot is enough to score well.
<Guest 13> 1918 won 2010 MSC ...
<Guest 57> to not win champs i think
<Guest 56> 1718
<SuperNerd256> It would be like having a turreted elevator last year to hang the tubes.
<jwfoss> dumping robots were king of 2009 not turrets
Guest 67 has left the chat
<SuperNerd256> Exactly
<Leeland1126> That's what I'm saying. If your robot can turn well enough, you don't need a turret. If you can't turn well, it would help.
<Guest 13> oops -- 1718 ...
<Bryan33> In regards to ball pinch, we basically found the amount of pinch where the ball's compression functions crossed (they arn't linear.)
<SuperNerd256> If your robot is having trouble turning, you may need to work on things other than a turret. :P
<jwfoss> ^exactly
<Leeland1126> Definitely. I'm just saying, there are circumstances where a turret would or would not help majorly.

<Guest 68> HEY MATT! we are still making improvements btw
<matt_FRCDesigns> Can't wait to see them
<Leeland1126> I wish I knew what it meant to be SparX Brainwashed. Maybe being on other teams will reveal this.
