At 6pm we had our second game of the day, this time against Plasma-Z of Thailand. The game began on time, but we were immediately forced to use a time out because our team member who manages full autonomy (which handles communication with the referee) was not present to get the autonomy working properly. Fortunately, we were able to resolve the problem before our maximum 10 minutes expired and begin the game.
Once the game began, we were able to score on virtually every possesion, and the opponent was unable to gain possesion of the ball for more than a second or two. After we scored five very quick goals, Plasma-Z had computer trouble, and was forced to take a time out. Plasma-Z then immediately forfeited and we won the game by forfeit, 10-0.
Game 2:
Big Red 10, Plasma-Z 0
Mechanically, we had zero major failures during both games. However, one of the horizontal dribbling motors is showing signs that it will soon fail and we will be replacing it tonight.
Ciao - Patrick
