Re: Best Robot of 2010

As for the best robot of 2010, I vote 1114 and 469. Either one was pure awesomeness.

469 has a habit of showing up on our match lists as our last qualification, against us. And we have lost every time we have gone against them (except once, when we tied).

We only went against 1114 at IRI. Ties to eternity. They are certainly the best normal robot that exists, followed by 67, who is very, very good.



As for 71 vs 67, I would have to say 71

in 2001, they did everything themselves, and did not need to rely on their partners. Edit: I've heard they were the only team that could beat us.

in 2002, they once again did everything themselves, controlling everything themselves and making sure that if they didn't win, it was because they made a mistake
