Both Hub City and Greater KC had dark tape to keep the extra pyramid carpet connected to the main carpet.

The tire-tracks in the center of the field might just be shadows from the pyramid bars or side net bars and the overhead lights.

In Hub they tried to mark the starting locations of the discs with a small piece of tape, but most ground pick-ups scraped the tape up along with the discs. You'll see some X's marked with sharpie on the carpet instead to mark those positions.

PS. In match 25 we did score 110 points. 42 in Auto, 48 in teleop (9, 9, 9, 9, 12) and 20 climb.
