Re: 2014 Waterloo Regional
I expect that going 20" outside your frame perimeter as a result of damage to your robot will no longer be a penalty as of this Tuesday. Kind of like how the rules were changed the Tuesday after 4522 lost Arkansas due to breaking the plane of the 1 point goal.
Luckily for 1114, they still get to go to St.Louis because they're a hall of fame team. This is because they've proven themselves to work hard towards achieving the goals of FIRST.
Unfortunately, 4039, 4907, 4522, 4090, and 2992 don't get that same luxury. 4039 gets another chance to qualify in New York City, where I wish them the best of luck. 4522, after the heart-breaker in Arkansas got knocked out in the Semis at KC and as of right now aren't signed up for any more regionals, which means a great robot probably won't be making the trip to St.Louis next month.
As far as tempers and emotions go, it's the nature of the "C" part of FRC.
