Re: 2007 Chesapeake Regional - Discussion
It has been an interesting day here, I have been very surprised by the number of teams that were no shows for the practice matches. Most matches were 1v1 or 1v2. A lot of teams still seemed to be assembling their robots. Inspections seemed to be behind, and teams seemed to be having problems getting approved.
Very few teams have a working auto mode, there have been a few teams 888 and 1629 who have placed a keeper in auto mode. Other then that I can't say I saw more then 10-15 working autos.
I will be curious to see how things go tomorrow in terms of pairings, and who is working.
As for our robot SPIKE seems to be happy, we swapped out our hook for a claw grabber, and that has wored great. I am curious to see what others think.
