Re: 2013 Pine Tree Regional

2386 was told they where not allowed to use their (illegal) offboard compressor. and this was unrelated to why they sat dead in match F2. Their digital sidecar power cable had come loose and they where not allowed time to fix it.

They got it fixed between F2 and F3, charged their air tanks with their onboard compressor, then went to swap their battery. The lead robot inspector came over and told them that if they changed their battery they would have to drain then refill their air tanks. With no time left to do that and no time to argue the ruling they (2386) decided to run on the same battery as they had not moved in the last match.

Also between match F1 and F2 a bearing exploded in their shifters. It was quickly replaced with wraps of electrical tape.
