Re: Who did NOT have comm problems in Waterloo regional?

Hey guys,

We aren't 100% sure at this point but it seems we lost communications at Waterloo likely due to a power spike in the robot or something along those lines causing our gaming adapter to reset itself and not link to the field. After the second eliminations match we noticed a burning smell and realized that our back left Jaguar and its corresponding CIM were much hotter than usual and far hotter than the other three Jags and CIMs on the bot. We suspect that we either had a short somewhere, although we haven't located any, or we may have just stressed our drivetrain system beyond its limits - maybe we should have just toned down the physical play a little bit?

And again, very sorry for the entire situation in the eliminations teams 610 and 1535. I won't bother typing it all out because you know what I'm talking about anyway.
