what do you think:

If hyper sneaks into 1st, I'm almost positive its going to be 69+121, then 1626+2079, and also 126+(173/1403?).

It looks like the only good ramp bots here are 69 and 121 (one ramp). If they end up together (69 and 121), I don't think they'd lose a match in the finals. 2079 looks like a big threat-- they'll be in good picking position, and they have the gripper to make it happen.

Its going to be interesting. Hopefully the action picks up tommorow.
As an aside, I love 1975s ramps. No drive train, and they "flop" backwards as they deploy. They may not be the most effective ramps, but it certainly takes some serious guts to go with that strategy.
