Thanks, Qbranch. During practice day, I discovered that the camera just couldn't keep up with the really fast robots, possibly because it was lower on the bot than others. Therefore most shots after that were manually controlled (by me). Also, our robot handles the game pieces slowly, which made us an ineffectual scorer. So instead, we adapted and used strategies that our robot was not designed to do to win matches, making the most of the scorers on the alliance and helping them to score big. Although this got us far, there was some amazing robots out there competing against us and even though we lost to them, we lost because they were better and not because we didn't try our hardest.
So thanks to all the teams that we played with, and also to the teams we competed against, for making it a great competition.

Yes we did. That was one of the great takeaways from BMR, winning two awards, the imagery award and the safety award.
