Re: 3 scored in Autonomous by a single bot!!!

Our Team, Team 20 got the second seed at WPI behind 230 and we teamed up for the finals. 230's auto was great, and they would at the very least clear 2 balls into the offensive zone and 1 ball into the mid field with 6 seconds or so to spare. The majority of the time they would score 1 or 2 and the others would be in the offensive zone to start teleop. After teaming up, we were able to put up a couple of 9s and 8s and our robots were extremely compatible, because 230 would go right over the bump into the midfield after auto and clear 2 or 3 balls and we would have 8 balls in the offensive zone/scored after about 30 seconds of teleop. With our robot proficiently scoring by out maneuvering others, controlling the ball well, and even shooting OVER other robots (6 for 6 @ WPI), we were able to form a dominant alliance along with 228 and take home the gold. Their auto did exactly as it should by consistently putting their alliance in the best possible position to dominate the teleop, and even scoring in the process. They also tackled one of the issues we saw with hanging by designing a consistent yet durable method of hanging. Other robots were falling and breaking as they attempted their end game but 230 was able to hoist themselves up without risking breaking. When we saw their autonomous our reaction was "wouldnt it be great to align with them?" Congratulations to 230 on a great design, especially your autonomous and end game! It was great to work with you guys and we will be seeing you in Atlanta!
