That was fantastic!

I'm a rookie, and this was my first time watching the championships live. 610, 1477, and 1241 were so amazing. I had no idea alliances could work together so seamlessly. Also, the number of people at the event was stunning.

Special congrats to all the foreign teams for coming this far, especially 2630: The Thunderbolts! I met them at the D.C. Regional when I accidentally stumbled into their pit, and they were, by far, the most enthusiastic team there. I'm so proud of them for making it into the quarterfinals. (Also, I'm stoked for Team 422: The Mech Tech Dragons! Their 'burning ambition' really paid off, getting off the wait-list and then coming in 20th for the Galileo Division? AWESOME! Blaze it, Dragons!)
