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.
Now there you go! Have you been able to pick up anything yet?

How many people has everyone sent to build robots at regional? It sounds crazy, but it happens.
