: Question 3/25/01: What differences do you think you will see at the nats from what we saw at regionals?

The biggest change is that I expect to see fewer "disaster" matches. Those are the ones in which the first robot over the bridge falls over and blocks the bridge so the match is essentially over before it begins (or some other disaster that accomplishes the same thing).

Now that everyone has played, they know what their bugs are and they now know how to drive their robot so that disasters don't occur. This was already evident at Great Lakes since a lot of teams have been to one regional already. The number of catastrophic matches at the GLR was much fewer than at the WMR. I think this downward trend will continue.
