Re: Resourceful Thinking

For the record, I know we weren't at GLR or CDN, but the Leopards had a mini-bot for 2002. I'm doubting we were the only team, though. At any rate, I don't know that I remember TOO many creative uses of robots at LSR. Lots of teams using big ball arms and stuff to get in the way of robots trying to hang. One robot that decapped a goal. I'm biased, but my favorite match was the last one on Friday. Team 57 was up against a good hanging robot. They had 2 more balls than us and were hanging on the bar already, so we lifted up above them, then lowered ourselves on top of them so they touched, just barely. We had to try a ton of times, and only got them to touch at the last second. I think that was pretty darn good.
