Re: Thank you GDC for an incredible game!

Yet in qualifications, a great robot could still stand out over the rest of it's alliance.

As has been said many times, Breakaway was a great spectator game. The GDC has definitely outdone themselves this year. I can only hope that they can repeat this next year!
Norman, you took the words right out of my mouth! As a junior I can sympathize with the same argument. Also, I have not seen a single statement in this thread in which I did not think myself at one point or another during the last few months. Initially this game was criticized for it's challenging bumps, but by the end I believe they really did add the twist needed to diversify strategies and make cooperation between an alliance necessary. For all of this, I appreciate your hard work.

Thank you!
Petrie
