If I could, I'd give you our spot. We're thrilled to be on it, but that list is based on public opinion and quite literally means nothing beyond a slight nod of approval. The utter transformation you guys performed at SVR by all rights should have earned you a slot. And if your comment were based on our elimination matches or our match against you at the beginning of Saturday, I would be inclined to agree. I am still ashamed by how badly we let our alliance partners down.
However, 2013 is one of the best robots we have ever built, and as mentioned above, there is a reason we were able to upset the 2nd seed in Lone Star, earn our place as 359's first pick in Utah, and achieve one of the highest teleop scores in SVR. Consistency is still a thorn in our side, but that is what we hope to improve for Championships.
Be wary of what you say about those who consider you a friend.
