Chris, if you don't know what it is, then don't disagree.
So for you and some others here is what happened-
So they had a huge crane with a suction cup on the end and they would drive up to a trackball, suck on it, and then the elevator rotated so they would swing the trackball around the field crossing into all quadrants and then it would drop it on the other side of the overpass to hurdle it. Their suction cup was on a winch so after it dropped, they would reach down and do it all over again.
The problem was that their robot stayed in the first quadrant while crossing into the others.

This is one of the only matches in which they got it to work
It was a beautiful machine, just not deemed legal.
