Ah, this makes alot more sense. For a moment, I thought he was saying that they built a robot for prototyping, worked all the kinks out, then rebuilt their entire robot during the first day of competitions. At which point I promptly called myself crazy and asked a dumb question. ::sigh:: Thanks for the response.
