: An unrelated comment about the bridge, a lot of teams seemed to be having traction problems on the bridge, I'm not sure if there was some difference in the carpeting or something, it seemed to be the normal FIRST carpet.... not sure what was up with that.

Well, I am assuming the same thing happened at UTC as it did at KSC. At KSC, due to all the traffic on the bridge, many robots with LOTS of traction, and robots falling on it, by the end of the first day, the bridge had a few "slick" spots on it where the carpet had been damaged. In one round, our robot hit a spot, and skid right off the bridge towards one side, and got caught on it. All I can say, is be ready for anything.
