Thanks to our wonderful alliance partners, 4269, 1108, 5188 for their great work in securing the win. I would work with any of you again at any competition, if we do not see you at Boilermaker, we will see you at the International competition in St. Louis.
Arguably more thanks has to go to 1024, 3147, 234 for their huge display of gracious professionalism when they called for a time out when they had no problems of their own. Without them doing that, there is no way that we could have pulled off the win. I think they all 3 deserved the gracious professionalism award for that, and the many other times they showed up to lend their assistance during finals to our alliance.
1108 did have an electrical problem during the finals matches. None of us realized the extent of it until about 75 seconds left in the time out. It was originally thought to be some shorted wires, it was found out to be a non functioning digital sidecar as well. A new one was secured while 1108 sat dead on the field for the match. When the green lights came on the race was on. Lucky for all of us, they were able to swap it out lightning fast and got it to work for the last match.
I also have to thank the field staff. Not only did they keep everything working, they were laying on the floor with us with flashlights, spare batteries and anything that was needed to get everyone through finals.
