I'd like to thank 2171, 33, and 70 for an awesome alliance. We couldn't have asked for better partners, and we all worked together very well. It was great to finally get the chance to play alongside the Bees instead of against them in the eliminations. We seem to have a habit of standing opposite of each other instead of next to each other.
I'd also like to thank and congratulate 67, 330, 987, and 68. When I saw that Truck Town was the backup bot in that alliance I knew we were in trouble. It was both fun and extremely tough trying to play defense on such a powerhouse alliance. You all deserved the win, and I couldn't think of a better alliance to lose to.
Thank you to the Judges for the Judge's Award. From when I first saw the trophies I fell in love with them, so it is awesome to have one in the team's collection. It really topped off an awesome event.
Thank you to all of the host teams, the volunteers, the judges, and the awesome refs for one of the most fun and most intense competitions I've ever had the pleasure of attending. Thank you to all the other teams in attendance as this was one of the first times I had the chance to go around and talk to some people about their robots and I was extremely impressed by the methods and ideas put into action.Thank you to everyone who performed at the talent show, and to DSK for providing even more entertainment. (now I'm just waiting for a DSK album, specifically a Dr. Seuss album) Finally, thank you to everyone at IRI for the awesome weekend, and an awesome final competition as driver and student.
