3. There were more elevator lift designs than I expected, so teams using them will need to put in more effort in getting their robot noticed by scouts.
4. Making tote stacks definitely took much longer than I thought
5. We visited two practice fields today. The first one had a handful of teams utilizing brushes on the front of their robots to push litter, while I don't recall any teams at the second event having those. I wonder if the Atlanta teams have been exchanging design ideas.
6. Can anyone pick up the upside down totes?
7. People at FRC events loveloveloveloveLOVE to dance the Cupid Shuffle.
8. It's very hard not to join the crowd of people doing the Cupid Shuffle.

All things considered, we really got to refine our our game strategies and practice for Chairman's. (Thanks GeorgiaFIRST!) Also, shout-out to the rest of the teams attending either the Atlanta or Walton pre-ship scrimmages. You guys were super kind and awesome to talk to!

Feeling fairly confident for the upcoming regionals. Palmetto and Peachtree, here we come!

#6 We can..saw it work many times in testing
