Re: alliances selection

Finals match one we fought for the cans with the intention of keeping the first alliance to three capped attacks (one five and two sixes most likely) while we would be able to put up two capped sixes from 3641, a five from us, a four using DHDC'S totes and our container, and possibly another short one if we got lucky with time. We lost the race and therefore could only get two sixes and a five. Finals match two we kept the same plan and lost again, but the other alliance was only able to get three stacks up. Of course we had no idea they would "mess up" so we raced. Had we known that they would only get three, we should've taken the two uncontested containers and then we would likely have gotten another cap and won the match. We were definitely planning on using four containers with five being a stretch goal.

Also, our mechanism was very hard to line up and we hadn't yet practiced lining it up with operator controls instead of by hand.
