rest assured, we did not go undefeated so we will not have the opportunity to be turned down by many teams. and while destroying the ability for the best of the best to be together may be some people's style, as a second pick worthy robot, we understand our limitations and do pure best to help our alliance win every match. we are certainly not going on the fieldand doing nothing. and as many of the MAR teams that I respect know, we would rather play against three good robots in the finale than screw alliance selection. we want to see Archimedes to win Einstein, maybe with a MAR bot in the alliance.
On a side note, thank you to 2016, the Mighty Monkey Wrenches for saving us when we had the perfect storm of disasters happen on the way to st Louis which had us finally arriving at the dome around noon on Thursday instead of Wednesday by seven. School bus accident. cancelled them delayed flight, missed connection, forced to spend the night in Charlotte rather than st Louis, and delayed a.m. flight. my team is thankful we are even herer to compete this weekend. thank you 2016 for putting up our Egyptian pit. fixing our bent axles. and being an amazing team. they might be ranked low, but I hope you have them on your radar. maybe someone will have enough confidence in 3314 to choose us for our reliable autonomous, three cycles, ten point hang, and our 80 prior matches of experience this season. Good luck to everyone on Archimedes.
