In hindsight, I keep telling myself that we should have kept on 399 for longer. I had no idea that 399 was inside of us There was an empty cell on the floor, and I moved away so we could bring it back to our human shooter. But man, I can't believe how fun this was. Wish we could have stayed competing for longer. Being picked by you guys, 399, would have been such an insane experience. Imagine where we could have gone...

edit: Also, I remember you, robodude03, coming up to us before one of our matches. It was so amazing to hear that you'd actually been thinking of choosing us. It was such a great feeling.
I saw the youtube video of our last match, the Quarterfinal 1 Match 2. Where can I find any other videos [of us]? I've checked thebluealliance.net but nothing's been posted yet.
With the top defense you guys showed in your matches of course we were thinking of choosing you guys. Our team was looking for good drivers and a bot that could really move, you guys had that. However, as I had mentioned before you were picked first probably for the very same reasons. I was actually sitting next to some of your team members during the alliance pickings.
