We were operating nowhere near full strength this weekend. We had high hopes, but given some of the circumstances, I think we overreached a little bit with what we were trying to do.

We had a little bit of good execution, a bunch of poor execution, and a whole lot of extremely bad luck.

Luckily, we were able to put in a lot of time developing our canburglars for champs. We now have a bunch of improvements to make to get them to world class speed and consistency.

Thankfully 3641 saw through all our issues and made us the #2 pick. Gave me a chance to play with my home town team. Also got some great help from 5114, some of my co-workers help with their team. Unfortunately we were bit with a little bad luck in QF1...no way to overcome a bad score in this format with every alliance capable of putting up 200pts.

Congrats to 1023, 548, and 1711. They were truely the best alliance. The rest of us were playing for 2nd place.

Congrats to 503, 68, and 2137 on the Chairman's awards, along with all the other award winners.

Thanks to all the great volunteer in Michigan. We'll wish we were back here when we get to St. Louis and experience the differences on the outside.

But, we move on with our ultimate goal still in front of us. Good luck to all the FIM teams at Champs!
