Well thanks for that complement, especially on the electrical system (that was my part

).
I would rather view it as if the students on the team learned something that is going to help them for the rest of there lifes then there robot already is the best. Because that is one of the greatest learning tools you can have, and one of the only learning tools you can have so much fun with.
However i suppose the robots would be a way of showing what the students learned. I will agree some robots may function better than others and some may look better than others, which is a good thing. Because say something on a teams robot did not function as well as another teams. The student on that specific team learns that ok here are the problems that we had now if i would have designed or built it this way those problems may not of happened.
Anyway there were a lot of nice robots out there this year (unfortunately i don't remember team names or numbers very well.
