Interesting, I definitely did not notice that. It must of been real intense rushing against the clock to get it fixed. I don't know if many people know this either but our alliance partners 1318 malfunctioned in both our semi-final losses (drive train in third match and conveyor in fourth). It was hectic watching them fix the drive train after the third match but sadly we never got a chance to fix the conveyor. Maybe we could of had our chance at your alliance?
No big deal though because despite this we put up a great fight and I could not ask for better alliance partners (1318 and 2865)


AND, The Seattle Regional thread seems dead compared to some of the other regionals, so let's spread the word about Chief Delphi and get some more posts
