Equally shameless self-promotion ahead . . .

I'd also hope to think that some people considered our machine (The Glittery Swan, or one of a thousand other names) an excellent big ball machine. It just seems that we've found our combination of limbo-ing doorstop to balance the bridge was a bit more useful at the regionals. We're hoping that by telescoping to 13' with a sign that says, "Pick Us", we'll get some attention

~ Michael, who thinks the team's robot is just too good to be overlooked.

: I would hope that most folks would consider 177 worthy of being on the list as well. During the seeding rounds at UTC, we mostly tried to balance goals and only scored our big ball once, but we were drafted by GaelForce as their main big ball machine and had great success. I'm sure that there are others out there with similar stories (Team 60 is one example).

: Sorry for the shameless self promotion, but with the odds as long as they are going to be at EPCOT, you've got to get the word out about your machine.

: Good Luck to all! See you in Florida.
