Opinion only, everyone can comment and add some.

Props:

All teams the teams, amazing three days, amazing competition.

Teams 236 (Techno Ticks) and 175 (Buzz), for being the best alliance we could have ever picked.

1073 for being with us twice in practice and just being a cool bunch of people, congrats on winning the rookie award, you deserve it.

811, for winning the sportsmanship award, and being okay with being flipped twice by us.

BAE Systems for the sponsorship, and for the incredible amount of volunteers. Also for TRYING to create a one way walking system that may have worked.

The scoring on the fly system, coolest thing to come out of recent years.

236 for doing the tick dance all the way through finals.

And 121 for scaring me all day long with the wedge bot, the autonomous was awesome when it worked, and the wedge was something to drive AWAY from.

Slops:

The venue, for not allowing food or drinks second day, then closing down the food stands, luckily they weren't checking bags very well.

The music, the horn, because they were way too loud, making it difficult to concentrate on field and in the pits.

I think the judges need a better way to define a "flipping" rule, because if you're a wedge, and you drive at a robot that's sitting still, and they end up on there back, isn't that militious?

That's all that I can think of off the top of my head, it's also really early and I have to get to work, I should have a day off or something, I've been working these past three days.
