Still no update to the match results at FIRST website as of this writing.
From my notes, the eliminations went like this:
8v9 was won by 9 in straight matches.
7v10 was won by 7 in three matches -- 10 won the second.
5v12 was won by 5 in straight matches.
6v11 was won by 6 in straight matches.
Quarterfinals were won by the top four alliances, all in straight matches.
SF1: 2v3 was won by 3 in straight matches.
SF2: 1v4 was won by 1 in three matches, with 4 winning the opener -- this was hands-down the most exciting set of 3 matches I've seen in 2006. Division by Chicken really put a scare on the top alliance.
Finals: 1v3. Wow! Three triplets, all Canadian teams, 1305 shooting very well, on-field repair of 1680 before match 3 with parts and labor provided by their opponents, mounting excitement generated by Karthik, 1620 getting on the field as 1st standby. The 1v4 semifinal was still the best played set of matches I saw, but the final couldn't be beat for drama! Won by the top alliance in three matches, with 3 winning the opener.
SF2 and the finals at GTR reinforced the (by now majority) view that autonomous is the key to victory in Aim High.

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.
