We have practically rebuilt the whole robot there on the arena and on the last match (last Qualifying match of the day), when we finally got everything working! The radio fell out LOL... (Someone forgot to tie it down)
It was a crazy day; I hope the robot works tomorrow, so we can prove that we aren't a piece of Junk. Our robot (if stays at current condition) should able to stack tetras on the center goal with 100% accuracy.

Calvin, 1624, 1441 and others who had minor issues with their robots, You guys did an awesome job. As an inspector, I was extreamly happy to see that every team at PNW regional was inspected by friday morning. 95 % of the teams were inspected without any problems on thursday. All teams at Portland had an amazing showing on thursday and friday. As far as I have seen on/off the field all terms have done extreamly well.
1624 girls scout team pretty much had to rewire and redesign their gripper to fit within the rules and with the help of other Gracious teams had a working robot by friday morning. The last two days have been great and i can't wait for the the final one.
While I was reffing I saw extreamly few penalites. Clearly the teams have been extra carefull at this weeks competition.
Good luck to all the teams tomorrow and at other regionals around the states.
btw: don't forget to smile for my camera on/off the field.
Thanks,
Akshay
