Ok so now that the regional is over I might as well list my teams in order:
  1. 25
  2. 25
  3. 25
  4. 25
  5. 25- Thats how dominating they are
  6. 293- Awesome defence, these guys can shoot really well too
  7. 486- Second best offencive robot, pretty good at defence too
  8. 103- Well built robot, I thought it was underachieving, but they are a team to contend with
After those 4 teams it gets a bit confusing (in no specific order)
75, 303, 1089, 56, 1807, 102, 1279 there are a bunch more too
Spike (293) had a great robot, unfortunately they really got unlucky throughout the competition. They didn't have a great seat by the time we picked teams, though they were still picked third.

I had originally hoped that our alliance would be 375-486-293, but spike was quickly chosen, and (obviously) 1860 turned out to do a great job. I recall that moment when spike almost pushed 25 over but instead they came back and pushed spike over.

Plus we think one of our team members is the American long-lost twin of one of the 1860 Brazillian team. They look a lot alike.
