Re: Favorite Robots at the Championship
I wasn't at Atlanta, and I may be biased, but here's my take:

IMHO 254 was slightly, but not significantly, better than 217. I'm sure 1114 felt they could win it all whether they chose 217, 330, 254, 1717, or probably a number of other bots too. They were friends with 217, so they chose them.

It made for an exciting semifinal match on Einstein. 1114 was slightly better than 233 and 968 slightly better than 217. I never actually got to see 60 play so I'm not sure how they compare to 148, but I think overall both alliances were pretty evenly matched with maybe a small advantage to 1114/217/148. 1114 definitely deserved to win it all, but 968 put together a great alliance and nearly snatched it away.
