1591 - You guys just kept climbing up our pick list all week, and we were ecstatic to be able to pick you for the elimination matches. You were great to work with, and I hope we can get together in the future. (Sorry about our robot troubles - this goes for 145 as well)

145 - Thank you for being a great alliance partner, both in qualifications and in eliminations. You were a well coached, well driven, defensive machine to be reckoned with. Truly a pleasure to work with.

1585 - What can I say: thanks for filling in for us! We were so glad to get a robot on our alliance with your fight and tenacity. You guys fit right in with the group dynamic, and were admirable in winning the quarterfinal match.

Teams 1126, 229 and 1567 - Great job! This is the alliance that I think everybody feared the second they stepped into the arena on Thursday morning. (And we were not wrong, apparently)

Teams 191, 250 and 211 - If the #1 alliance was the one everyone feared, you guys showed no signs of it in your hard-fought final match. Congratulations on your silver medals.

1901 - An amazing first year so far, congratulations on being highest rookie seed! Also, thank you very much for helping us try to repair our robot, then lending us batteries and support in the eliminations. You're making Canada proud, and we'll see you in Waterloo.

340 - Wow. One chairman's award is hard enough to win, but two in a row? I guess it's an understatement to say that you must be doing something right. Congratulations!

A general thanks and congratulations to all the teams I failed to mention (there is much to say about you guys too), and a specific thanks and congratulations to John and Steve for being a fantastic MC-announcer duo.

Hmm...i thought i already posted here...guess not.

Thanks to 188 for picking us and thanks to 145 and 1585 for being great alliance partners (188 too). and another thanks to 1585 for filling in when 188 had troubles. Hope to see you all next year (and maybe we'll be partnered up next year)
