Re: A disturbing trend?

At the Buckeye regional we only had three or four teams not passing by the end of Thursday. Most of these were final weigh-ins, sizings and/or BOMs. One rookie team had two other teams frantically working with them on Friday morning to get them inspected and to their first qualification match. We got them inspected just before their first match, but they were so late that their robot was not allowed on the field.

Compared to the Wisconsin regional, which had many more rookies, things went fairly well on the inspection front. I did notice when we were packing up our robot that we gave out three of our spare flag holders sometime during the regional.
