We've been trying to get our robot back up to 100% functional. This week we we able to fix most of the stuff we broke last week.
Sounds like us on 4901! We'll be fixing the stuff that didn't exist last week.

(Our first meeting with kids was September 25, and the first time in the shop was October 1 with a borrowed chassis from 1293. Over six working nights, understaffed with a crew of newbies and on a shoestring budget, we've about completed a working robot that might just dump in the low goal, hang for 10, and look good doing it. Forgive me if I have a proud papa moment while announcing that first match.)
