Finally to top it off, while there were 2 classes of robots, there still existed the challenge of making a robot to "do-it-all" and while that type of robot was difficult to build it was still a strong possibility for many teams.

It was just great in so many ways, and I'd like to see another game like it for 2010.
I agree, 2007 was my favorite year and I wish we could redo that year. Can't wait for the 2010 game and please bring back carpet, please.
