[wireties]

Very frustrating - every match was a different issue. We changed to a 6-stacker for champs from a regional-winning 5-stacker so the machine did drive differently. Our driver had a few problems (a few matches) but most problems were electrical and mechanical. We had a CANbus wiring problem (2 matches) then replaced a TalonSRX but did not properly wire it into the PDB (2 matches). We didn't properly position the cube robot, ours is an active tether design, one match. We tied a critical piece into a position to enable a 20pt auto effort by an alliance member but it did not release as expected (we were dead that match). We had joysticks swapped (one match) then had one flake out (frayed cable) - just one silly problem after another. Arghhh!
