While unfortuante that we couldn't allow for more time to let people repair their bots, due to us being off schedule we had to push through in order to allow for enough time for a field break down and packing.

I hope Conor, Sara, or Dave can explain more and give more details.
I know they had their reasons, and there are no personal grudges, the situation was just unfortunate and irritating for the teams, but then again, the unnerving waits from the first two quarter finals got to everyone, and it may have been the pressure of semi finals that made the situation so hectic for the two alliances. Overall, Monty was fun, and we did well for only using rookie drivers. We were there to have fun and break in new drivers, so what more could we ask for?
