Re: BAE FINAL REMARKS
I would agree, Clinton/Nypro had an awesome robot, and paired with 350 and 121, they were literally unstoppable.
As for the walking...I spent a lot of time in the pits, but when i was out, i agree. They should rope of the first row in fron of the aisles...i mean, it's bad enough trying to get a flow of traffic both directions, but when people have their feet sticking out in the way it makes it even harder.
AS for gameplay, it was rough...very rough. The final matches had lots of hard hits, but what my question is, is what exactly is "intentional ramming" count as?? In 2 matches yesterday playing against the same team, our robot was repeatedly hit from about midfield, until we literally we stuck under a goal(luckily our arm was good enough to get us out). It had happened the match before, and the ref. didn't say anything, so we let him know that this team would probably try and do it to us, or team 126 (nypro/clinton) Gael Force, because thats what they had done. When we were playing we had to actually ask the ref to look at them ramming us, it was THEN that he threw a flag, but i wonder, after the match they said they couldn't count it because they had to give them a warning...does that make it ok? Thankfully we fort knoxed our bot, but if it was a less fortunate team getting hit, would it be ok for them to potentially damage a robot enough they couldn't drive (these hits were HARD), but not get any type of penalization for it?. SOrry for the rant but i was pretty heated when we got off the field and i told them they should stop hitting so hard, and their drive menotr told me "the drivers didn't know they were back so far". four times it happened in just that match though. but oh well, thats the game. sorry for ranting.
