I kind of feel bad for 624 Cryptonite after watching that match. 624 scored all the tele-op points for the blue alliance.
Yea If you watch the collision between 1885 & 254 at 0:26, you may notice that the Poofs' "fingers" on their collection mechanism jam into our electronics board. At that point the jags started throwing errors down the CAN bus, meaning that we still had comms but very sporadic response from the robot. It should have been a [G27], potential yellow card if the ref caught it and we could have explained the extent and result of the damage, but the ref didn't see it and wouldn't assign the penalty after the fact.

We figured there were 2 ways to slow down the poofs, but only got to try one of them (and it obviously didn't work )
