Re: 2016 HOTBOT
This is an amazing robot, as always. Every year, the robot design I'm most excited to see is 67's.
It's great to see some familiar faces still involved with HOT and FiM, with Jim Meyer as drive coach, Dave Verbrugge as MC, and Tom Nader as game announcer. At the same time, it's cool to see that the team can have so much turnover in students and mentorship and still put out a fantastic bot.
As a side note, I hope Adam Freeman is having a great time down in Texas, away from the team he helped win 3 World Championships!
I didn't get to see that many matches from Waterford, but I did note that you were able to score 3 high goals and capture the tower in Quals 33. Then in Finals Match 2 I noticed you guys weren't scoring high anymore. Was the shooter broken, or did strategy and analysis dictate that low goals were better for you?
