Heh.... your chain fell off during that match?? Now it all makes sense....we didnt know why you didnt go back into your zone...

We were the bot holding the goal steady while you tried to push it away (quite in vain, if I may say so ).... heh, anyway...good job

We had something similar happen.. we lost 39-40 and only a foot away from making our endzone....we were spinning in circles, just thinking that our breakers tripped, but in fact the electrical clip somehow BROKE OFF the drill motor on that side...it kept us disabled for 2 rounds unfortunately and dramatically lowered our score. Had the motor not broken, we would've been in 2nd place after that match (hey 120 pts compared to 39, and then we lost our next 2 matches with only 20 pts which prob woulda been higher).....

Oh well, we did pretty good overall.... Still think we got screwed over where our pit was (all the way to the side where no one goes )

But it was fun... BTW...we were the robot with the mirrored-aluminum sides I dont know if you noticed, but when the light hit just right, BANG!! everyone in the stands blinded
