Re: 1-41-43
This once again shows how important it is to keep updating the picklist through Saturday morning.
This reminds me of Waterloo last year.
We were having robot problems right through the first day of quals and were sitting right near the bottom of the rankings. Finally on Saturday morning we got all of our kinks ironed out and suddenly were running 4+ cycles, with upwards of 90% accuracy, with a 10pt hang at the end.
610 (second alliance captain) picked us as their 3rd partner. Given our overall stats, that's about where we expected to go; however, with our Saturday morning performance, we were a steal.
We ended up losing in the finals to the 1114 and 2056 alliance, but it wasn't the usual blowout that Waterloo is used to seeing. If I recall correctly (might have just been one of them), 610 and 1310 were both having issues with their full court shooters.
610 has an incredible scouting/strategy team. The attention to detail that goes into their scouting is crazy. Fantastic team to be on an alliance with!
