that was fun (rally in the valley)

i'd like to start off by saying i'm extremely tired. we just got home from rally in the valley. it is now 12:45am sunday, and i have been up since 6am friday. we had to leave at shortly after midnight on friday to get to lebanon by 7. it was a 300 mile trip.

i'd like to thank team 95 for letting us attend this competition, we had a lot of fun. we got a score of 162 in one of our qualification matches! we ended up tied with 121 for 1st with 103 average points, at first we were told that we were second because 121 had more wins than us. then we were told that we won because the tie breaker was the highest qualification score, they we were offically told that we were in second because we really had the average of 102.8

we picked team 195 for our alliance in the finals, and our third partner was a ghost team. that meant that us and 195 had to play every match. well, in the first match of the finals, we sheared a pin in our drive system. we lost that match. we only had a couple of minutes to fix it and we didn't bring any spare pins with us, so we had to go back on the field and find what was left of the pin. we found 1/2 of the pin and shoved it back in. fortunatley it stayed. the second match, everything went wrong. one of our grabbers fell out, causing us to loose all air pressure. and we sheared another pin. we lost that match too. i guess having a third alliance member would have helped since ours was't 100%.

well, thanks for letting us come, we had fun, it's now 1am, and i've been up for 43 hours, time for sleep. tomorrow we have to fix the robot to be ready for battle cry
