Well, it was a tough regional for good ol' team 483 but we finally got our robot working one match before finals. We thought it was over. Somebody saw us.
So, there we were a first round draft pick with teams 452 and 473 (thanks for picking us by the way!!). And who would we be up against but...my old team GRT #192, the ever so lovable battering ram on wheels. Tough to swollow that one, when only a few minutes before I'd been thinking...'I'll bet we'll be up against GRT in the very first round if we get picked'. And this was me thinking about our worst case scenario. GRT had some amazing defensive rounds and their partners #64 were just straight amazing (watch out, east coast!)
So, I'll say now that I've been humbled by my own team and hope to get over this whole ordeal as soon as possible.
Anyway, don't count us out for florida! Primates are just more difficult to control without practice cuz they've got opposible thumbs =P
Stop by the #483 pit if you guys get a chance...and GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE!
-Daniel
