I'm sorry if I sound like I'm whining, but what about those of us who don't eat those three options? I understand that they're used to providing food for a 3 or so hour game, but if they are unable to sufficiently do the job then they need to let us bring our own food in. :end rant:
That was the most expensive pizza I'd ever had. The worst too.

As for teams, I think 279 is doing awesome with their tetra hopper. I'm pretty sure they won an award for it, but I don't remember.

Today was much more intense than the practice rounds. A lot of robots stacking tetras. A lot of robots preventing other robots from stacking tetras. A good day it was.
