Re: Ungracious professionalism at internationals?
From what I've gathered, the conversations that 217 had with alliance captains went something like this:
"Listen, we're in a very bad spot right now and if you pick us, we probably won't be able to help your alliance very much. If you do pick us, we will try our best to get everything repaired but we can't make any promises. There are other teams out there that can help you more than we can right now."
If this is the case, then I don't see any problem with it. 1538 decided it was worth the gamble and picked 217. They got the robot up and running, but continued to have problems throughout elims. I think that it is unfortunate that teams feel uncomfortable with how the whole situation played out. Perhaps we can discuss ways to approach this situation to ensure that teams don't feel misdirected afterward?
