When I saw the last match, how can you overcome a team that scores 50+ during autonomous while the other scores 16 (I think). The other team could stop playing during teleop period and still win.
The game was more fun to watch than I earlier thought or expected.
Other observations:
Team 25 had no problems loading up a ball, and without a manipulator. Impressive. If either they or team 103 are the #1 seed, and pick each other, oh boy!??!!
The best team to watch was 102! Its the coolest robot out there, picking its way around those larger bots. You gotta love it.
Robobees-great performance today. good luck!
We really miss playing here.

Thanks for the kind words. Overall our experience this competition has been inconsistent at best and knocking the track ball down has been an unanticipated challenge. We think we have that beat.
103 is certainly the hottest team on the floor this week. Ive watched them catch and settle a bouncing trackball and then quickly pop it off. They did a great job. And we owe them a lot for advice on repairing our ball knocker as well as giving us the key to solving the IR riddle yesterday. They are good friends.
Another team to watch is the rookie Robbinsville. They have been on fire with their auto mode and knocking the balls down. Great job for a first year team.
And congrats to 1089 (my family's team) for winning the web page award. They have worked incredibly hard against some ridiculous odds against them this past year. They deserve the recognition.
