The chess battle that would take place between alliances of where they were placing tubes was exhilarating and then to see the teams rush last second to place that last tube or place that spoiler and then dart for their alliance's ramps and lift 12 inches all within the last 10-15 seconds was unbelievable.
I actually thought 2007's end game was a game breaker in many elimination matches over various regionals. 60 points vs none was huge.
Wasnt that the year that a lot of lower seeds won regionals?
I also cant recall any other year that an 8th seed won CMP.
