Hey Tyler 178

Hey Tyler I feel the need to say something in regards to your last statment. You say that it is unbalancing for the old teams to compete at new regionals. We (1158) were a rookie team there. Before the under the table deals we were ranked number 1, then pink took it (they probably would have eventually anyways). Going in to the finals we were ranked #4. After #2 (Bull dogs and #3 (Gompi [no clue to actual spelling sorry]) teamed up, we were the number 3 alliance. We beat the #6 alliance and the #2 alliance to make it to the Finals. One of our partners (955) was competing for only thier 2nd year. And with the first place alliance I think it was only 957s second year. So don't say that the new teams can't compete with the Veterans.

As to your other statement about 233 making deals. I agree that they shouldn't be allowed but they are. We were offered 2 such deals during the competition one from 233. I politely declined the offer and nothing else was said.
