IRI was my first competition in a while where I was more of a spectator and a lot less involved in the competition, and I must say that this was the best competition I have been to yet. Between how well run the event is, and the number of great teams, it is the type of event that will attract me to come back year after year.

I would like to echo Pat's comments by thanking 1114 for their hospitality. It was really a fun weekend, and the Simbots are a great group of people (even the little simbots).

Ohh, and Pat even though most people thought there was only one Canadian team, getting the highest scoring robot in the second round was a total steal. Congrats to 2056 on the best rookie season a team could hope for; 2 regional wins, strong showing at the championship, and an IRI win!
