we played against team 1090 3-4 times, and with them once. This does not strike me as random. Also, I feel we had bad luck with that random thinger, we only had two or three matches with alliance partners who were real good, and a few where they didn't work at all.
I'd like to see the whole random thing redone. We didn't qual, but I'm not really bitter, especially after our last match (110 @ Stl) where we dominated two teams at once . . . 1090(again) and 877 (#6 or 7 ranked).
It was a good match, our partner protected our stack (and failed, although it was a great effort) and we got the boxes. After we knocked middle boxes down 877 and 1090 tried to come up the ramp, but we manhandled them both. the final score was disappointing (73-3), especially because we had agreed to let all four robots on top at the end . . but only our alliance robots could get there. Still, when you've won half your matches and are still out of the running, a sweep feels good. If only we could have managed to convince 877 to pick us as an alliance partner after that . . . . . . . . . .
