If your team has made improvements since you last competition please lets post them and let the other teams know. For example . team 107 added a 20 pt auton and increase the speed of our stacker this helped us go from 53.08 to 92.75 average match score. Good luck to all the teams this weekend !
Team 74 can't be wrong, can they?

After struggling at the feeder station at Howell (and seeing 107's pass-thru loader) we did the only logical thing - we threw in some re-cycled Lunacy Regolith and, viola, we could make stacks!

West Michigan was a great event (as usual). The depth of talent there always makes the game look good. GVSU is a great facility, and the volunteers made everything run smoothly. Thank you all.

Thanks to 107 for the cylinder, 2054 for the Lexan, and everybody else for the kind words of encouragement, etc.

Thanks to 2137 and 2405 for working so well as an alliance. They say this game is like work, and you were both experts in your specialty fields. We hope to work with you all again soon.

PS: Speaking of 74 - IMHO, they were the most improved machine at the event. Good job! I expect to see a significantly different looking game at MSC.
